American Government : Continuity and Change

With new features and thoroughly updated through the Bush Administration, the midterm elections and the 108th Congress, the war on terror, and the potential war with Iraq, the number one book in American government continues to provide a current and engaging introduction to the course. This Alternate Edition is the comprehensive version of O'Connor and Sabato's text without the policy chapters, and diligently reflects the "Continuity and Change" theme as it is written in the belief that we must first understand how American government and politics have developed in order to fully understand the issues facing our nation today.
