Review Quotes: "LeLoup evaluates the limited impact of the 1974 Budget Act Congress passed as a means to establish its own control over fiscal policy. The book addresses itself to the questions: why did Congress feel this reform was imperative; and, after its passage, how did Congress attempt to control its own spending decisions. ...The book is well written; it contains useful charts, a good bibliography and index, and an appendix containing the complete text of the Budget Control and Impoundment Act. Highly recommended for universities and for colleges with a strong emphasis on government budgetary activity."-Choice
