Angry, Bored, Confused: A Citizen Handbook Of American Politics

Dr. Michael Kryzanek has a well established scholarly reputation in comparative politics and government, with an emphasis on Latin American area studies. Now it seems that his preparation and intelligence have resulted in a tremendously honest and necessary American Politics text that urges it readers to think carefully and profoundly about the pluralistic elements of every aspect of American politics.Whether one approaches an understanding from the left or the right Kryzanek gives you the opportunity to educate yourselves ideologically and recognize that many of the facts that are used to justify conflicting political positions are the same even as they disagree. He convincingly involves his readers as one who is attempting to "objectively" explain the attributes and vicissitudes of American politics. And he does a remarkably good job at it!

An easy reference to the major structural issues in US politics. The writing in consise, precise and the information is presented in a very easily digestible style.
