Review
"The text is organized in a way that is user-friendly to the instructor and the student."
"I like the detailed information provided about the legislative process and different committees."
"Overall, I think this an excellent and very comprehensive simulation that is not particularly time bound so it should be useful in perpetuity."
"I think the book is accessible and unintimidating and thus well-written for undergraduates. It neither talks down to students nor overwhelms them."
"Overall...this guide is a welcome addition to the textbook world and one that will find a home in many professors' offices."
