"In the interest of full disclosure, I have not read the entirely of this textbook as my Intro to Comparative Politics class focused solely on Britain, Germany, China, and Mexico. Therefore, I only read the chapters on these countries and a handful of others dealing with political economy, conditions for democracy, conditions for development, and the like.
Comparative Politics offers a fairly compact look at the political system of each country it delves into, and it's fairly easy to get the "gist" of a country. However, I found that the book was pretty dry; it wasn't boring, per say, but lacked a little pizazz to keep the reader interested. If you're not interested in the country you're reading about, Sodaro isn't going to give you a reason to. And, personally, I found the journal articles my professor assigned to be much more interesting than the chapters of this textbook."
