This volume provides a concise yet thorough overview of California's complex political system. This brief "nuts and bolts" treatment uses contemporary examples that are illustrative of complex principles. The text includes coverage of such major issues as the economy, education, and immigration and discusses the impact of these issues on California politics. In addition, the text integrates public policy coverage throughout the text, instead of consigning it to one chapter - keeping students focused on the practical effects of legislation and other government activities.

Review:

"This book is concise enough to be assigned to my American Government students in conjunction with a complete American Government text and comprehensive enough to cover main ideas and issues related to California government and politics."
