Newell/Prindle/Riddlesperger’s TEXAS POLITICS: IDEAL AND REALITY, ENHANCED 13th Edition equips you with a thorough understanding of the Texas government and political landscape — and how they impact you personally. The text explores the Texas political system in the context of three main themes: the ideals of democratic theory, political conservatism and private influence over public policy. Its up-to-the-minute coverage includes 2018 election results, immigration, climate change, the fight over mandatory child vaccinations, the ongoing capital punishment debate, the Legislature’s increasing partisan polarization, the link between the actions of the Trump administration and Texas politicians and much more. In addition, MindTap’s “anytime, anywhere” digital learning solutions — eBook, interactive activities, flashcards, quizzes, dictionary and more — help you maximize your study time and course success.
