Description

This classic textbook has been a vital supplement in American government classes for 35 years. Much more than a dictionary, the comprehensive information provided for each term qualifies The American Political Dictionary, Tenth Edition, as a reference book. Professor Plano's extensive experience in writing political dictionaries is evident in this scholarly, interpretive, current edition. Appropriate as a supplement in the introductory course in American government. This textbook could also supplement various texts in such courses as Legislative Process, The American Executive, Constitutional Law, and Foreign Policy.
