Throughout the textbook certain words are highlighted and include an in-chapter description. The textbook also includes the Declaration of Independence, Articles of Confederation, Constitution of the United States, Amendments to the Constitutions, and Federalist Papers: Madison #10 & #51.
This textbook, which is similar in content to "We the People" - explores the "Power & Purpose" of the government. The textbook gives lessons on the principles of government, the construction of a government, separation of powers, civil liberties and civil rights, the branches of the government (along with their functions and powers), political parties, elections, federal and other courts, special groups and interests, the media, economic policy, social policy, and foreign policy.
It is a textbook, so obviously it is written to educate a student in the particular subject.
It can be a good reference book for future use, as well as a refresher book.
Since this is the 12th edition (2012), a newer book might be preferable for students and anyone wanted a more modern update for a reference book.
