国会议员戴维·普赖斯（David Price）是唯一有资格指导读者了解国会错综复杂的规则、角色和代表的人。作为一名训练有素的政治学家，他将山上的实际政治与该学科的理论联系起来。在政治似乎达到新低之际，他同样关注公共服务的伦理。通过这一切，他清楚地表达了作为国会议员所隐含的挑战、失望、喜悦和深切关注——尤其是在国家和国际局势脆弱的时候。

The Congressional Experience: An Institution Transformed, 4th Edition
Congressman David Price is uniquely qualified to guide readers through the labyrinth of rules, roles, and representatives that is Congress. As a trained political scientist, he connects the practical politics on the Hill with the theories of the discipline. He is equally focused on the ethics of public service at a time when politics seem to have reached a new low. Through it all, he conveys a clear sense of the challenges, disappointments, elations, and deep concerns implicit in serving as a member of Congress–especially at a time of national and international fragility.

• Details the Trump impeachment process and the subsequent pandemic bringing change to Congressional floor voting processes, putting current crises in context with prior occasions during the Clinton and George W. Bush presidencies.
