Reviews
The key factor why I decided to adopt past and present editions of Cummings and Wise was its readability. . . Other strengths are its stronger institutional chapters and its reliance on systems theory which I view as the best way to explain American politics. . . ., I've used just about very text for the introduction to American government course. . . . The clarity, style, content, and pedagogy of Democracy Under Pressure ranks with the best of them - especially the grace of writing. It is far livelier than one usually finds in such text., I really like the American Past boxes. They are relevant, interesting, sometimes humorous, and always thought-provoking.

Synopsis
DEMOCRACY UNDER PRESSURE has provided over a million students with a comprehensive look at the fundamentals of American government. Cummings and Wise pair lively narrative with exemplary scholarship to convey a balanced, realistic sense of political history and to describe the institutions of American government. Throughout, the authors examine the theme of democracy under pressure, discussing the way democracy responds to the needs and demands of various groups over time. The text is developed around a systems approach - a framework of analysis that discusses various elements of the political process in terms of inputs and outputs - and focuses on the gap that exists between theory and reality in government today. This new edition has been updated to include the results of the 2002 congressional elections and other recent events of importance to the American political scene.

    The items were exactly as described and in great condition considering the age of two of them. They were packaged well and not damaged. Shipping was very quick and the seller was easy to contact to combine shipping. I'll gladly buy more books from them.

    Clean workbooks in virtually new condition. Some minor corner damage to the covers and pages of a couple of the books. The seller did take care in packaging them for shipment, but sadly, the mail carriers and sorting machines can sometimes be rough on books. Thankfully the damage does not affect their use. Very happy with my purchase. Seller is highly recommended!!
