Summary, etc. T wo recent writers in particular have shown me the way<br/>towards the type of political analysis which this book<br/>favours. The late Mr. T. D. Weldon, especially in his<br/>The Vocabulary of Politics, exposed the vagueness of terminology<br/>in much theorizing about politics. Professor Maurice Duverger<br/>in his Political Parties has shown that the study of political<br/>institutions can be analytical as well as descriptive.<br/>I should like to thank Professor Edvard Thermaenius of<br/>Stockholm for explaining to me that British Cabinet Govern-<br/>ment is not synonymous with what the Swedes call parliamentar-<br/>ism. I owe a special debt of gratitude to the Commonwealth<br/>Fund, New York, for enabling me to study the American type<br/>of presidential government at first hand and for introducing<br/>me to the interesting work being done in the United States in<br/>the field of political behaviour.<br/>Several British colleagues were kind enough to give me their<br/>comments on portions of the manuscript and numerous students<br/>helped me to work out my ideas in lectures and seminars. To<br/>all of them, and to Miss Rita Turner who typed out the<br/>manuscript, I proffer my thanks.<br/>I am especially grateful to Professors Wilfrid Harrison of the<br/>University of Liverpool and Manning J. Dauer of the University<br/>of Florida for their wise criticisms and helpful advice; and to<br/>my wife, Diana, for always insisting that I try to make my<br/>meaning as clear as possible.
