Attenuated Democracy

Attenuated Democracy is an engaging and relevant textbook for introductory U.S. government courses. From the opening letter to students through to the end, Attenuated Democracy has a clear narrative that helps students understand who has power in the American political system, why they have power, and what ordinary Americans can do to better balance the system—all while conveying the important concepts and ideas that any survey of U.S. government is expected to cover.
