Government and Politics of the United States Reviews

'Readable, reliable, detailed and sensitive to historical background - Nigel Bowles' text deserves to be widely read and to survive through many editions. Highly recommended.' - John Dumbrell, Political Studies Comment on first edition: 'A most impressive book. Comprehensive in scope and clearly written, it is the most suitable text on United States government yet produced for non-American undergraduate students.' - Alan Ware
