Political thought in America : conversations and debates
"In this updated third edition, with a new chapter on 9/11 and the War on Terror, the author skillfully immerses readers into the politics surrounding ten great crises in our nation's history. Through the eyes of philosophers, writers, and orators of each period, and the voices of commentators both historical and current, the author outlines political theories in the context of the debates and conversations of the men and women who have struggled to extricate the nation from crisis." "The book's style brings the American political experience to life with clarity and vision. Each chapter ends with an insightful author commentary, an updated and comprehensive bibliographical essay, and a list of major works for each period."--BOOK JACKET
