This is a great textbook, if you are teaching a whole cooure in California politics, or if you give at least two weeks in your American Politics class to California politics. There is a lot of content here, and some good photographs, too. The book contains more information than Gerston's and Christensen's "California Politics: A Practical Approach" (see one of my previous review to learn more about this book), but Gerston and Christensen make a better use of empirical data than Lawrence.

If you feel like going for a lot of information on California politics, then pick up this book. Also, be aware that in addition to facts, this book does theorize from beginning to end, which is something not found in Gerston and Christensen. The book is an easy reas and it puts histroical and political information into a cogent theoretical framework. I certainly recommend it to people wishing to learn more about the politics of the Golden State.

Good fast delivery, got it when I expected it. Book is in the condition stated. Would purchase a book from them again. =) happy.

This book came quickly, and was a required reading for Government class. I was worth the reading, even if it was for the understanding of how California Government worked without me.

Shipping was fast. The book was used but in good condition. Just some wrinkles and worn corners, but nothing I didn't expect.
