We used this textbook with the accompanying teacher's guide and student activity book for a home school high school American Government class this past school year. This text was easy to understand, dealt with the most essential information, was very interesting and held the interest of the students. None of them ever complained the text was boring or unpleasant. The activities book provided good ideas for additional expanded projects and research. I think all the kid's had great fun and I sure learned an incredible amount teaching this class and using this resource.

American Government: A Complete Coursebook is a great resource book. I know, as a student, that you can find a lot of topics in this book that aren't even touched upon in any ordinary textbook. This is a wonderful resource, especially for Economic, Legal, and Political Systems (ELPS) students, and U.S. History students. From the definition of "bill", to 105+ Supreme Court cases, this book has found almost all of the information I have needed. Maybe, it will work for you or your student too.

As a student, I really enjoyed how this book is very detailed, yet to the point, and also the lightness and small size of it. I learned a lot from it, and didn't have a boring time at it either.

If there are any teachers out there that are going to be teaching American Goverment - Get this book!! Your students will love you for it!

I homeschool my kids and had my 14 year old read this book. This book covers the basics, but definetly idolizes left-wing politicians and their policies more than conservative politicians and policies. I think a text should be balanced otherwise our kids are just brainwashed into thinking one way or another.

This is just the book I was looking for. Hopefully this is my first step in entering the political arena.
