About The Book
From Simon & Schuster, The Idea Brokers is James A. Smith's exploration of think tanks and the rise of the new policy elite.
Tracing the rise of the think tank from the turn of the century to the present, historian Smith provides a portrait of this policy elite and concludes that "experts" have preempted the public debate by helping to remove complex issues from the ken of ordinary citizens.
