American Politics Today

Great Britain: Manchester University Press. Paperback. Small waterstain mark to top edge of front and back inside cover page. Small mark to back cover from removal of old label to back coper. The intention of this introduction is to give readers a basic grounding on which they can build. Each chapter combines an analysis of essentials, and illustrative and interpretative information on current trends and developments. The note-style presentation emphasises central points which can be explored further in the books listed at the end of each chapter. Special attention is paid to those features of American politics, such as primary elections and the role of Congress and the Supreme Court, which are sometimes puzzling to those more familiar with parliamentary systems. The material covered should be relevant to students studying for O and A level examinations in American Studies or Comparative Politics and as basic reading before commencing university courses in these subjects. 194 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.) .
