McGraw-Hill conducted extensive market research with students from across the nation to gain insight into their studying and buying behavior. Students told us they wanted more portable texts with innovative visual appeal and content that is designed according to the way they learn. We also surveyed instructors, and they told us they wanted a way to engage their students without compromising on high quality content. Am Gov provides unmatched currency and is the first student-centered American government text. It provides instructors with scholarly, succinct, and conventionally organized core content; and a magazine format that engages students and motivates active participation in our democracy. The new 2011 edition includes new features including Obama at Midterm feature and Citizenship Quizzes.
