The Ninth Wave

"The Ninth Wave (1956) is a pioneering novel focused on a political campaign, spotlighting opinion polling, computers, and campaign consultants as revolutionary tools. Though it envisioned a future where data could dominate politics—a notion both challenged and validated today—the story remains a compelling, prescient exploration of political mechanics. A must-read for those fascinated by the intersection of data and political strategy."

About

The Ninth Wave, published in 1956, follows a political campaign complete with then cutting-edge innovations of opinion polling, computers and the use of campaign consultants. Though we now know – even in a world of Facebook and Obama – that data and numbers can’t quite predict and control political outcomes in the way the book lays out, the world has turned out close enough to Burdick’s picture of the future to make The Ninth Wave a prescient and still relevant story, and one that should be loved by people who are into the mechanics of politics.
