| Résumé: | The book's appeal since first publication has largely come from its liveliness of approach. The student is not buried beneath a monument of constitutional fact. This new edition has been brought completely up to date. The straighforward exposition and analysis are interwomen with a rich selection of documents, questions (some multiple choice) and exercices. The reader is encouraged to work at and reflect upon the material, rather than simply absorb lists of political facts. The book can be read as a complete text of taken in individual chapte; or specific documents can be studied on their own. The book will appeal to sixth formers, students in the universities and polytechnics, technical colleges and adult education centres. |
