ISBN: 9781599208060 Author: Connolly, Sean (Author) Publisher: Smart Apple Media Published: July 2012 Retail: $42.80 OUR PRICE: $3.09 You Save 93% Binding Type: Library Binding Annotation: The Systems of Government series provides an importance service: it explains the major types of governments in ways that are substantial yet don’t overwhelm. Theocracy doesn’t just cover Middle Eastern countries; there’s a chapter on Jim Jones, a sidebar on early Mormons, and much about how religion can creep into a democracy. The series is impressively up-to-date—see the discussions on France’s ban on burkas and the Arab Spring (though Kim Jong Il is depicted as still alive). Most important, the series is deeply thoughtful and well designed, with plenty of excellent pictures and sidebars, and it stretches itself at every turn to suggest to readers what the future holds for various systems of government |
