Heith move beyond purely theoretical analysis to examine the real-life, day-to-day responsibilities and challenges that go with the job. FEATURES: * Incorporates archival documents from multiple administrations--in a "Then and Now" format--that reveal the inner workings of the White House and animate the discussions from the perspective of the presidents and other political actors * Offers extensive coverage of methodology, teaching students how to analyze the institution * Develops critical-thinking skills by integrating both institutional and president-centered approaches * Includes an in-depth discussion of campaign finance as an essential part of electing presidents
