Revel for Comparative Politics -- Combo Access Card

A thematic, question-driven approach to comparative politics
Revel™ Comparative Politics shows students how to perform real comparative analysis while introducing them to political institutions, identities, and interests. Utilizing an engaging question-based chapter structure, author David Samuels helps students learn to formulate their own political arguments and to thus be more critically informed and engaged political participants. Because politics is an ever-changing subject of study, the author has updated the 2nd Edition to reflect recent developments of note such as the aftermath of the Arab Spring and the rise of nationalism (as evidenced in Brexit and the election of Donald Trump), as well as numerous new examples throughout.

Revel is Pearson’s newest way of delivering our respected content. Fully digital and highly engaging, Revel replaces the textbook and gives students everything they need for the course. Informed by extensive research on how people read, think, and learn, Revel is an interactive learning environment that enables students to read, practice, and study in one continuous experience – for less than the cost of a traditional textbook.

NOTE: This Revel Combo Access pack includes a Revel access code plus a loose-leaf print reference (delivered by mail) to complement your Revel experience. In addition to this access code, you will need a course invite link, provided by your instructor, to register for and use Revel.
