Some of the arguments made in this book, such as the proposition that bicameralism makes a change to the status quo more difficult than unicameralism, may seem intuitive, even trivial, to the reader. Other arguments, like the rarity of a bicameral core in more than two dimensions, or empirical evidence, such as the connection between chamber composition and length of intercameral negotiations, dispute the conventional wisdom in the literature or point legislative research in a new direction.
