15 Acknowledgments The material in this book was developed over the past three years, and has, during that period, been greatly improved by comments and suggestions provided by Ernest Adams, Bill Adams, Ian Budge, Dieter Burrell, Seth DeFilippis, Bernie Grofman, Kent Jennings, David Lazer, David McKay, Nicholas Miller, Gordon Tullock, Eric Smith, and John Woolley. I also note that, in addition to drawing heavily from both the basic Downsian framework and the vast behavioral literature on voting behavior, much of this work was directly inspired by Feld and Grofman s (1991) insight that voter biases arising from non-policyrelated considerations have fundamental implications for parties policy strategies. In addition, the sections of this book that consider parties cross-time policy strategies were inspired by Ian Budge s (1994) study of this same topic. I particularly thank Samuel Merrill III and Roy Pierce for their detailed and insightful comments on large portions of the manuscript. Samuel Merrill kindly gave his permission to include a summary of joint work in progress. The data sets used in this study were made available through the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR), Ann Arbor, and are gratefully acknowledged. Chapter 2 is based in part on ideas presented in Adams 1998, while chapters 3 5 draw from Adams (forthcoming). I also extend special appreciation to my father Ernest Adams, my mother Anne, and my brother Bill for their support and encouragement during this enterprise. Finally, I gratefully acknowledge my wife Dorothy Adams, whose love and support made this book possible.
