Critical Thinking and American Government

Designed to be used in conjunction with the major texts used in American Government courses, CRITICAL THINKING IN AMERICAN GOVERNMENT provides information and exercises that hone the skills necessary for success in the interpretation and analysis of information. Exercises address issues and content corresponding to chapter topics in popular American Government texts, but are designed to be worked without the need of additional references. Information is derived from a number of sources, including Supreme Court opinions, congressional hearings, and public opinion polls. Discussion topics cover a variety of issues, ranging from affirmative action to foreign relations.
