This first edition text for the introductory Comparative Politics course uniquely achieves a balance between the methodology and science of politics and the comprehendible, comprehensive type of text that will truly prepare a student with little background to understand key concepts, theories and foundations of political science. Impressive as an introduction to the science of comparative politics, the author blends a nuts and bolts approach with meaningful historical and contemporary political examples and blends these examples with a strong theoretical background. Written in an exceptionally clear tone and accompanied by websites, exercises and readings, this text will reach out to the introductory level student while also presenting material that can be used to continue students' training in scholarly research.
