Reviews
" American Politics and Society gets better with each edition. The breadth of its coverage and the depth of its analysis make it an unsurpassed introduction to the U.S. political system. This new version brings the text and the statistical data right up to date and provides the essential context to understanding the current crisis of American government and its political institutions."? John Hart, Australia National University ?Combining beautifully clear information with magisterially lucid analysis, David McKay's survey of American Politics and Society has been a model textbook for 30 years. This new edition has been comprehensively updated and rewritten to take account of the leading developments of recent years. The balance between continuity and change is here admirably depicted and reviewed, renewing our fascination with the patterns and surprises of US civic and political life.'? James Dunkerley, Queen Mary, University of London ?David McKay's essential text continues to serve as the building block upon which the current generation of scholars and students can learn about the political system of the United States. McKay's work has always been lucid, concise and informative; but now with even more graphs, data and briefing sections, the latest edition is twice as expansive, informed and intricate. A triumph of detail and deliberation, McKay's book reaffirms its central role in the teaching of American politics. An indispensible read.'? Ian Scott, University of Manchester

Synopsis
Now in its eighth edition, this popular introduction tackles the most recent trends in American politics and society through explanation, analyses, and interpretations of government processes adding valuable international context for students by considering these procedures and developments from a non-U.S. perspective. Acclaimed author, David McKay, incorporates numerous updates and revisions to reflect recent trends in American society and politics; developments characterized by some of the deepest ideological divisions since before World War II. Reflecting these historic changes, McKay shifts his focus from the gap between public expectations and government performance to the increasingly strident and divisive ideological climate now seen in the modern American political system. This new edition also features two full chapters devoted to the recent course of the Obama presidency and a new chapter on environmental politics. The book is written in a student-friendly style and is supplemented with numerous illustrations and helpful pedagogical features, including chronologies, biographies, and definition boxes highlighting key concepts and controversial issues.
