Reviews
Praise for the 2nd edition: 'An immensely useful text; it should do well with undergraduates both at home and abroad.'- Bill Jones, University of Manchester, UK 'Let me express my unqualified enthusiasm for a comprehensive introductory text that really does succeed. It is challenging because it encourages students to think about issues and concepts in a fresh and analytically precise way. It is superior in range, style and accessibility.'- Robert Eccleshall, Queen's University, Belfast, Praise for the previous edition: 'An immensely useful text; it should do well with undergraduates both at home and abroad.' - Bill Jones, Liverpool Hope University, UK. 'Let me express my unqualified enthusiasm for a comprehensive introductory text that really does succeed. It is challenging because it encourages students to think about issues and concepts in a fresh and analytically precise way. It is superior in range, style and accessibility.' - Robert Eccleshall, Queen's University Belfast, UK. Praise for this edition: "This is one of the most original and innovative textbooks in the field. Without compromising on detail, it has put a lot of thought into guiding the reader through its vast range of subjects. It should be tremendously helpful for students of politics." - Mathias Albert, University of Bielefeld, Germany. "This is a great book. Engaging and accessible, this invaluable text introduces students to the complexities of politics, as an activity and an area of study, in a lively and thought-provoking way. Wide ranging in scope, and retaining its theoretical and conceptual rigour, and this revised edition brings us up to date with contemporary political issues and debates." - Heather Savigny, De Montfort University, UK.
