The new edition takes in the many changes which have occurred in US politics and explores the ‘political and ideological polarization’ which some commentators see as a significant characteristic of US politics and society today. With two new chapters on environmental politics and the presidency it provides an up-to-date survey of the views and criticisms of leading political commentators.  

It also includes commentary of the 2008 presidential election, with the historic election of Barack Obama, and issues such as the changing balance of support for the Democrats and Republicans and the recent decline in the global reputation of the United States. It has been packed full with illustrations and pedagogical features, including definition boxes, biographies, chronologies, and more controversies than before.
