This is no ordinary textbook on American Government. DEMOCRACY FOR THE FEW is a provocative interpretation of American Government that you have likely not been exposed to in elementary school, high school, or other college courses, and certainly not in the mass media.

This book will give you a refreshing look about the inequalities between the rich and the poor and how the middle class is squeezed out in America. In order to get updated statistics, you might also want to consider reading the eigth edition, which is copyrighted 2008. This book explores inconsistencies in laws and how certain wealthy groups run the majority of the country. Even if you do not agree with this book this is required reading and if I was teaching a course in American Politics you will be required to read, write, and discuss the topics in it.
