Synopsis

Yet few outside Washington actually understand how our government and political system should work, much less how it actually operates. This informative book traces the historic development of the government, the functions of each branch, and how they work together. Written in an entertaining, reader-friendly, question-and-answer format, The Handy American Government Answer Book deciphers the news behind the headlines through well-researched answers to nearly 800 common questions.
