Présentation de l'éditeur :

In the most up-to-date core text on the presidency, Pika and Maltese once again deliver a comprehensive, accessible, and engaging analysis of the increasingly political nature of the office, while artfully balancing its historical foundations. This revised seventh edition features a new chapter on the first 100 days of the Obama administration and discussion of: the precedent-setting campaign and election, Obama s transition to the White House, new cabinet members and high-level advisers, the legislative agenda and executive legislative relations, and the outlook on foreign policy.
