Electoral Systems Reviews

'Farrell yet again delivers a master class ... This book will sit easily on the bookshelves of seasoned electoral system academics, as well as those starting out on their electoral systems scholarly journey.' Fiona Buckley, Irish Political Studies Reviews of the 1st edition: 'David Farrell concisely describes - and dramatically illustrates with sample ballot papers - the variety of electoral systems across the world. His book will be an eye-opener for those unaware of the implications of alternative methods of voting. Students everywhere will learn much - about their own as well as other systems - from reading this book.' - Kenneth Janada, Northwestern University 'This excellent book provides clear and comprehensive desription, analysis and assessment of different electoral systems...[T]horough...admirably clear and well exemplified...Farrell's skilful work of synthesis is the best available text on electoral systems.' - Adrian Blau, Political Studies Review 'By far the best book on the subject.' - Reuven Hazan, The Hebrew University, Israel
