Summary notes: "Why do presidents behave as they do? When do they succeed? When do they fail? And what mark do they leave on our nation? For answers to these questions, journalists, biographers, political junkies, and a good number of scholars look to the idiosyncratic qualities and individual backgrounds of American presidents. It is the individual, they assert, who matters most. And so it is the individual--his or her personality, psyche, style--that we should study if we are to understand our politics"--Provided by publisher.;
