Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
American Government courses are constantly changing because of world events and the political cycle. As you know, we just went through an election cycle that determined many governor races as well as the party in control of Congress. We incorporate all of these major changes in this new edition. In addition, there are other current issues covered in this new edition including issues of immigration, education, and the tensions of the federalist system. 'The Promise and Performance of American Democracy' uses the theme of the title in each chapter to gauge how our government, including its institutions and political influences, are measuring up. Furthermore, the authors use political science theories to outline the promise and performance so you get a sense of how political scientists study the processes, politics, influences, and institutions, of American Government.

It took over a week for me to recieve the book. Once i did, the book was in good condition for a used book, but it was the wrong book. It was an older edition that was advertised with the newer edition. I returned it.

This book was written by my political science professor at Texas A&M. During lecture he would be a little more one-sided, but this book is very neutral and demostrates facts very clearly. Bond has a particular affinity for graphs and being long-winded. However, he does use some good examples to illustrate his point. All in all, the book is not that bad.
