<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Organized thematically around important questions in comparative politics--who rules? what explains political behavior? where and why?--<strong>Introducing Comparative Politics, Fifth Edition</strong>, integrates a set of extended case studies of 11 countries that vividly illustrate issues in cross-national context. Serving as touchstones, the cases are placed within the chapters where they make the most sense --not separated from the theory or in a separate volume--helping students make connections between the two earlier in the semester. The book's hybrid organization gives students a more holistic view of comparative politics.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Organized thematically around important questions in comparative politics--who rules? what explains political behavior? where and why?--<strong>Introducing Comparative Politics, Fifth Edition</strong>, integrates a set of extended case studies of 11 countries that vividly illustrate issues in cross-national context.

The language is clear and easy for students to follow. Instructor resources are quite helpful (and a key part of my decision-making). Overall, this is the best comparative politics text for undergrads that I have found. It covers all the important topics in the field and presents them in a way that is accessible to students.</p>--Laura N. Bell<br><br><p>This is a great introductory comparative politics text for both majors and non-majors. The material is accessible for non-discipline students, and easily lends itself to connections with other academic disciplines. The structure of the content is flexible enough to allow for the integration of current events. </p> <br/>--Erika Cornelius Smith<br>
