U.S.-India security cooperation
Overcoming the nadir that followed India’s nuclear test and the propensity toward the safety of inaction within both governments, the United States and India have forged cooperation on a range of issues, from security to economic to climate change. Nowhere has coop- eration been greater than in the area of security cooperation. The question now is whether the bureaucracy on both sides can take advantage of the opening quickly enough and thoroughly enough to make improved security relations endure. Our report provides an overview of how U.S. and Indian security interests are aligning and where gaps remain. It also provides insight into the areas of ongoing or possible security cooperation that should be considered.

The roads to Congress 2008
The Roads to Congress 2008 offers readers straightfoward and detailed case studies of the campaigns, candidates, key issues, and outcomes of over one dozen of the most important and interesting races of 2008. This includes both House and Senate campaigns, contests from all regions of the country, and seats held by Democrats and Republicans, as well as open seats. Every two years the pageantry of American politics unfolds when all 435 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives and roughly one-third of those in the U.S. Senate are up for election. These elections provide voters with an opportunity to evaluate their members of Congress and the institution as a whole. They also offer a regular and frequent barometer for the health and practice of American democracy. The 2008 election cycle, in particular, was in many ways one of the most intriguing and pivotal elections in many years and for many reasons, which are explored in this book.
