I bought this book along with Dahl's introdcution to Democracy, "On Democracy". The writing style of Beetham isn't as fluid, and the books do cover much of the same territory, but this book is filled with many good examples of the causes of disenchantment with democracy and has more UK based examples to illustrate his points. If you are looking for a first book to understand the subject, regardless of whether you agree with the concept of democracy or not, this is a good place to start.
