How Governments Work

Teachers, students and anyone interested in learning more about how the world works will benefit from this book. Thousands of facts, statistics and images make a complex topic interesting, almost addictive. This book is a great find.

Great Overview of the World Government Systems

This book discusses every type of government and then gives a one page summary of each country that is under that form of government. This is a great supplement to a geography curriculum. Also, the book contains beautiful photos of the different countries that help a student visualize what life in different countries is like.
