UNDERSTANDING AMERICAN GOVERNMENT is a mainstream text that reflects a diversity point of view. Focusing on the responsiveness of government, the text helps students understand the evolution and impact of important features of government. The book is a three-time winner of the annual award given by the women's caucus of APSA for coverage of women. Written in an engaging style and offering more research citations than any book on the market, UNDERSTANDING AMERICAN GOVERNMENT is readable and scholarly. This brief version of AMERICAN GOVERNMENT, Eighth Edition, excludes the four policy chapters. Otherwise, the books are identical, and share the same supplement package.
