Arrogant Capital, by Kevin Phillips (Little, Brown, 231 pp., $22.95)Mr. Frum is the author of Dead Right (Basic).WHAT IS one to make of Kevin Phillips? The man who is widely regarded as the greatest living expert on American electoral politics is a mixture of political insight and economic preposterousness; deep historical knowledge and glib soundbites; respect for American traditions and hostility to American institutions.
