FIVE GOOD REASONS YOU'LL LIKE WHAT YOU SEE IN AMERICAN GOVERNMENT.

Well-written and student-friendly

American Government shouts out "teacher written, teacher reviewed." The writing is provocative, lively, and designed to prompt students' thinking and hold their attention.




Priced right for a semester course

Why pay $45 dollars or more for a semester course? American Government has all the content and color the others do and for less than half the price. Plus, its convenient size (and weight) is easy to hold and carry.




Up-to-date

Recent issues and events are fully covered and updated regularly. And, for this price, you can afford to update your text more often.


Packed, fully loaded, and comprehensive

American Government covers the full expanse of content to meet state standards as well as prepare students for the AP exam. You'll see what a well-written book can cover. Read it and compare it to what you're using now.




Skills simply taught and explained

Government teachers spend 20% to 30% of their time teaching students how to evaluate sources, read political cartoons, understand graphs and polls, and write about politics. Don't you wish you had one good handbook (like the new American Government)that really teaches these skills?
