Rather than describing what entrepreneurs do, he prescribes and tests what they ought to do

This research updates earlier work done on the phenomenon of prescriptive committee seats in the U.S. House of Representatives, and extends the investigation to the control of committee seats by state delegations in the U.S. Senate.
