Reviews

"Prelude to Quebec's Quiet Revolution has substantial merits, and fills an important gap in the existing literature. The research … constitutes an important contribution to the field of political thought in Canada, and helps us to understand the present-day political debates facing the Canadian federation. Behiels is to be congratulated for producing an extremely well-documented study." Alain G. Gagnon, Department of Political Science, Carleton University

"A comprehensive, useful account ... intense, provocative." American Review of Canadian Studies
