We The People:

Emphasizing the relevance of politics and government in everyday life, We the People, Seventh Edition, continues to provide tools to help students think critically about American government and politics.

The Seventh Edition has been thoroughly updated to include extensive coverage of the pivotal 2008 elections and important recent events and issues. Complemented by a rich package of multimedia tools for instructors and students, including an expanded DVD with more popular culture content, We the People is now more pedagogically effective than ever.

• The best text for showing students how government is relevant to their lives—and how they can get involved in politics.

Chapter introductions on What Government Does and Why It Matters show students how government and politics are meaningful to their daily lives. Then, within each chapter, a Politics and Popular Culture box challenges students to look critically at how politics intersects with television, film, music, cartoons, and the Internet. At the end of each chapter, new Get Involved boxes discuss realistic ways to participate in politics. These full-page features use contemporary examples to explain how young people (even those with busy lives!) can make a difference in politics.

• Thoroughly updated, with extensive coverage of the 2008 elections and important recent events and issues.

The pivotal 2008 elections are analyzed in a 12-page section in the elections chapter, as well as in significant sections in the Congress, presidency, and voting/participation chapters. Throughout each chapter, Politics Today questions highlight discussions of recent events and issues in today’s headlines.

• A comprehensive teaching package—and an exceptional value.

The Seventh Edition of We the People is the most affordable fullcolor text available for introductory American government courses. It comes with a thorough set of support materials for students and instructors.
