Items related to Waxman Report, The: How Congress Really Works
During his 33 years in Congress, Henry Waxman has sponsored legislation that's touched the lives of every American: The Clean Air Act. Nutritional labelling on food. Smoking bans on airplanes. As chairman of the most powerful government oversight committee in the House of Representatives, Waxman has also investigated waste, fraud and abuse throughout society, from Wall Street to Major League Baseball to Iraq. Few legislators can match his accomplishments or his insights into the way good work gets done in Washington. In his first book, Waxman takes us inside the life of politician to show readers how landmark legislation is crafted; how Congress really works.
Only someone who has observed the workings of Washington for decades could explain with such insight the subtle rules of success (and the most common pitfalls of failure) on Capitol Hill.

Review:
A welcome look at the internal workings of the legislative branch-- essential for political junkies.--Kirkus
"A very readable insider's account of [Waxman's] 35 years in the House... the explanation of the workings of a widely misunderstood government body is a public service from a committed civil servant."--Publishers Weekly
