American Politics and Society

Completely revised and updated to take full account of the 1988 Presidential Election which swept George Bush into the Oval Office, this new edition of "American Politics and Society" provides a clear and concise introduction to US politics for all students of political science. It explains, analyses and interprets the processes of US government - and, crucially, appraises them from a non-US perspective. This account is aimed at students of American politics in their first year undergraduation.
