Synopsis
This book addresses all of the major topics of an American government course, including elections, Congress, public policy, and so on. However, unlike many introductory books, it emphasizes a more topical and provocative point/counterpoint approach that explores the conflicts that truly define America as a nation. Each chapter includes a discussion of a significant political issue and presents both sides of that issue, showing how and why Americans are often politically at odds with each other.
