American Government: Continuity and Change,

This exciting, new, low-cost option for American Government marries a pared down text with the multimedia resources available in MyPoliSciLab for an interactive and dynamic classroom experience. Designed to provide a stronger link between the text and MyPoliSciLab, marginal icons throughout the text link to online content which includes numerous interactive activities and quizzes. Guided by the belief that students must first understand how American government developed over more than two centuries to fully understand the issues facing the United States today, O'Connor/Sabato offers the strongest coverage of both history and current events of any college textbook devoted to American politics.
