Basic introduction to politics in United States


Politics in America outlines how the United States' Constitution, Congress (Senate + House of representatives), President, courts, bureaucracy, mass media, political parties and interest groups interact in a political system that makes decisions on many spheres of human activities, both within and beyond the country's boundary. As the 2008 Presidential Election in the United States is heating up, Thomas R. Dye's Politics in America should become an even more valuable reference book for new students of American Studies.

A very good and readable text which I read is "Democracy Under Pressure: An Introduction to the American Political System" by Milton Cummings and David Wise.
A number of US colleges and also American Studies departments in foreign universities use this as a basic textbook.
Democracy Under Pressure: An Introduction to the American Political System
Milton's book looks interesting as it is rated 5-star in amazon.com
