This edition combines concise coverage of the central topics in American government with compelling critical analysis, including coverage of the 2004 elections. With new in-text learning tools, "American Government" uses refined pedagogical apparatus to help students approach American politics and government analytically. A new capstone chapter - "Does American Government Work?" - explores the challenges the American system faces today, including the influence of advocacy groups and moneyed interests, divided government versus one-party control, and the use of prosecution and investigation for political gain.
