公平代表的问题将占据中心地位，因为根据2000年的人口普查，美国国会地区重新分配了。作者利用美国历史作为指导，建立了公平代表的理论，该理论建立了各种转化国家人口的原则 - 或当事方的投票总数 - 对国会席位的公平分配。他们得出的结论是，当前的分配公式会欺骗较大的国家，而较较小的国家，与开国元勋的意图相反，并损害了最高法院的“一人，一票”裁决。巴林斯基和年轻人将理论发展与关于代表性的争议的丰富历史描述交织在一起，并表明在美国历史过程中，这些原则中有多少种是从政治竞赛中发展出来的。结果是一部刻有历史，政治和流行科学的作品。这本书（以1980年和1990年的人口普查计数的数据为止）生动地表明，分配涉及政治权力的实质。
The issue of fair representation will take center stage as U.S. congressional districts are reapportioned based on the 2000 Census. Using U.S. history as a guide, the authors develop a theory of fair representation that establishes various principles for translating state populations --or vote totals of parties --into a fair allocation of congressional seats. They conclude that the current apportionment formula cheats the larger states in favor of the smaller, contrary to the intentions of the founding fathers and compromising the Supreme Court's ""one man, one vote"" rulings. Balinski and Young interweave the theoretical development with a rich historical account of controversies over representation, and show how many of these principles grew out of political contests in the course of United States history. The result is a work that is at once history, politics, and popular science. The book --updated with data from the 1980 and 1990 Census counts --vividly demonstrates that apportionment deals with the very substance of political power.
