Excellent book

Just what I needed for my class and has helped me with both classes for Government I and Government II.

Text Book

This text book was just like new and really helped me in class. I was able to receive it before classes started and was able to make my own notes inside because it had so few markings.

Nice textbook

This book was in great condition when I received it. It has alot of current government events especially with Barack Obama.

Government Textbook

If you are taking a class in government and your teacher assigns this book, buy it, read it, study it, make an A. The book is very informative and easy to read.

Perfect Classroom Supplement

The instructor of this book lent me this book for a short while, and I read it 'til dawn. Unlike other social sciences textbooks, this book is written in engaging prose that both keeps the attention of the student without diluting the topic with unnecessary simplification. The authors add an interesting perspective on the principles of modern government and its relationship with the American public by speaking of recent events in context of the subject matter; they'll often mention modern figureheads like Kerry, Gingrich and Pelosi; although the 2008 election (or even the next news broadcast) could render the book dated a relatively short amount of time, its young lifespan gives the ultimate experience for any high school senior wanting a well-rounded look into the American government that's both interesting and informative.
