From the best selling author of A Preface to Politics, Public Opinion, and Liberty and the News! The Phantom Public was Lippman's most towering achievement influencing political thought for decades to come. In it Lippman posits that the public exists merely as an illusion, myth, and inevitably a phantom; that the common man cannot be expected to know enough about events entirely beyond their control to cast an informed and meaningful vote.

In it he came fully to terms with the inadequacy of traditional democratic theory. -Ronald Steel
