Great book to own

I bought this book for one of my first political science classes. Awesome book to references gives great detail about how the various governmental structures in the international realm function. Some minor details that change about seats, parties, constitutions correspond with the year but other than looking up those few details. Great book for any political science major to own.

EXCELLENT Text

I took the class with 2 of the authors, and the text provided me an in-depth learning experience with the comparative government field.

Taught by the Author

This text was used in the course of comparative politics I am currently taking with 2 of its authors. The book is quiet deep and is definitely not for use in teaching AP COMPARATIVE GOVT. Introduction is pretty long and boring.

A perfect view at modern politics

The best book concerning politics i have ever rea
