Praise for Interest Groups and Lobbying: Pursuing Political Interests in America, Third Edition
“Holyoke's text is fantastic for political science majors and non-majors alike. It covers major concepts and theories of interest group studies in an accessible way. Especially in the new edition, it balances analysis of cutting-edge political science data with illustrative and well-chosen case studies that help students integrate their learning with issues in their daily lives. Perhaps most impressively, it helps students learn the basics of formal models of group behavior in a way that is clear, accessible, and insightful. An easy choice for my class on political organizations that I look forward to turning to again and again.”
Geoffrey M. Lorenz, University of Nebraska-Lincoln
Praise for Previous Editions
"Exceptional in scope and clarity, Holyoke’s Interest Groups and Lobbying is sure to become a mainstay for students and scholars of American politics. Holyoke presents a comprehensive and timely review of existing theory and empirical research."
James Strickland, Arizona State University
"Interest Groups and Lobbying provides a compelling and thoughtful examination of lobbying and advocacy that allows students to consider the topic in both an applied and theoretically rigorous way."
Interest Groups & Advocacy
"Interest Groups and Lobbying is an engaging, informed, and innovative analysis of interest groups and lobbying. More than simply a description of lobbyist 'dos and don'ts,' this book provides a serious model for understanding the real-world issues that lobbyists and the groups they work for face."
Rodd Freitag, University of Wisconsin, Eau Claire
"Interest Groups and Lobbying will challenge students to rethink their assumptions about interest groups, and think more critically about the problems of representation in the interest group age."
Bryan McQuide, Grand View University and University of Idaho
"Perhaps most useful for teaching students about lobbying are the case studies on national parks, gun control, and the US Chamber of Commerce."
