Decent book containing various descriptions of the many political systems in the United States, with examples of both US political systems, and political systems abroad, shown to compare the US politically to the world. Contains a lot of details, and is generally easy to read. Very few changes from the 7th edition, so unless you absolutely need this edition, get the 7th edition
Well-written! I enjoyed this textbook very much.
It was worth it. No mishaps or anything.
Mind numbing.
