In an era of heightened partisanship and increased polarization, the seventh edition of The Contemporary Congress offers a clear and concise introduction to legislative processes. Perfect as a brief core or supplementary text for undergraduate courses, Loomis and Schiller construct a comprehensive portrait of the U.S. Congress.
American Politics is designed for professors who wish to supplement their main American Government text with a comprehensive reader. Cigler and Loomis offer a broad selection of classic and current selections--both historical source documents and critical journalistic writings--accompanied by useful analytical essays on current political issues.
