Packaging the Presidency cover

Packaging the Presidency, third edition, is Jamieson's updated study of history of presidential campaign advertising. It offers an examination and criticism of every presidential election from 1952 to 1992.

From previous editions: `For an informative and scrupulously detached treatment of this undoubtedly critical aspect of modern politics, Packaging the Presidency seems to me definitive.' Washington Post Book World
`Jamieson...knows her subject backward and forward. There is nowhere else I know where one can learn as much, and trust so well, to a balanced judgment of the past generation of political advertising.' The Philadelphia Inquirer
'This exhaustive study may well prove to be of absorbing interest to psephologists who argue that politicians in their campaigns do nothing more than employ enthymematic syllogisms.' The Press (New Zealand)
