"Political science majors, rejoice! You finally have your own version of a Harry Potter blockbuster book! The cover shot of this book says it all. The distinguished attire, the cold grey unforgiving contrete architecture, the blank white sky, the earnest, weary expression of the man at the centre... In more ways than just juxtaposition Justice John H. Gomery realls IS the exorcist for our increasingly corrupted age."

"...There isn't a non-fiction book out there that so easily combines smarts, spin and substance. So engrossing is the book (this is one surprisingly accessible - yet academic - piece of work) that is has the palpable urgency of the best fiction with the power-of-one sure of creating real change in our system."

"This buoyant piece of reportage is an attempt to capture some of the atmosphere surrounding the commission."

"What we have here is a good first approximation of an event that will ave more than its fair share of interpreters later on. Readers will find the summary of Gomery's recommendations useful. And, since this is a translation, one should congratulate Carl Angers for an excellent job."

"A new book by the media spokesman for the sponsorship inquiry led by Justice John Gomery spins a tale of missed opportunities on the road to recommendations to clean up government."

"The book does offer a humanizing portraig ot Gomery, several tantalizing glimpses of how the power brokers in the bureaucracy operate, and a few other footnotes to history..."

"One of Perrault's most usefil insights illuminates the mized reception at the highest levels of the bureaucracy to Paul Martin's decision to initiate the inquirt in the first place."

"The book, Inside Gomery, faults bureaucrats for trying to withhold documents and giving misleading information about the cost of the inquiry."

"...compelling behind-the-scenes account..."

"Naming names and skillfully navigating the corridors of power into the heart of the nation, Perreault delivers a cautionary tale for every Canadian."
