Purchase options and add-ons

The Senate is a place where political minorities and individual members hold great power, resting on authority drawn from Senate rules and over two hundred years of related precedents and traditions. The minority has and will always have a clear and important voice on issues brought to the Senate floor, and it is this distinction from the majority rule of the House that has enabled the Senate to work as well as it has since our democracy's inception.

Now in its fourth edition, Senate Procedure and Practice explains why and how the Senate has worked for more than 200 years. It includes the updated modifications of procedures governing Senate debate, amendment rights, and the formation of conferences. The book is filled with fascinating stories and insights that highlight why certain rules are in place, how they are practiced, and the ways in which those practices have changed throughout history as our federal government and the needs of our electorate have evolved. Anyone with an interest in the pillars of Senate procedure and practice will find a useful companion in this book.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This book will be invaluable to any student of the Senate." -- Robert Dove, Parliamentarian Emeritus, United States Senate

"As Mr. Gold writes, the U.S. Senate is a twenty-first-century body operating with a core of eighteenth century rules—a fact that makes following the Senate’s lawmaking process both frustrating and fascinating. Senate Procedure and Practice ably explains this process and its consequences. No one explains it better or with more credibility than Martin Gold." -- Kent Conrad, former U.S. Senator from North Dakota

"Mr. Gold’s knowledge of and respect for the U.S. Senate shine through in this overview of the institution and its rules, procedures, and traditions. Senate Procedure and Practice gives the reader a grasp of real-world application of Senate process to the issues before Congress." -- Jon Kyl, Senator Jon Kyl

"Grasping Senate procedures is crucial to understanding how the institution fulfills its constitutional role. Martin Gold’s book makes this vital topic clear and accessible." -- Dennis DeConcini, former U.S. Senator from Arizona

"The Senate’s rules, precedents, and processes admirably serve the Framers’ vision for the operation of the Upper Chamber within the Constitution’s architecture. Martin Gold is the gold standard in describing it all in a way that will greatly assist Members and staffs, and anyone else, who needs to understand how and why the Senate functions as it does." -- Gordon H. Smith, former U.S. Senator from Oregon
