Public Financing of Congressional and Presidential Campaigns 

To critics, public campaign financing, generally in conjunction with spending limits, is the ultimate solution to perceived problems arising from ever-growing costs of campaigns and the accompanying need for privately donated campaign funds. This new book reviews past proposals for a debate over congressional public financing and discusses experiences with the presidential and state public financing systems, offering potential considerations for Congress in devising a public financing system for its elections.
