3 stars rating Politics for Dummies
by Ann DeLaney

Politics for Dummies by Ann DeLaneyOne in the series of popular "Dummies" books, "Politics for Dummies" is the primer the activist needs to get started, and the education any good citizen requires. In simple, easy-to-read paragraphs, DeLaney leads the reader through explanations of various political institutions (the campaign, the electoral college, etc.). She describes ways to get involved in politics at all levels and, more importantly, why one should get involved. She even lists common mistakes made by voters and candidates alike, and includes advisories worthy of special attention by citizens. The book is intended as a reference - chapters are layed out in such a way that the book can be pulled off the shelf when a specific question arises. It is also, however, interesting and entertaining enough to read straight through at the reader's discretion.

Lady Liberty's read: You already know you should be getting involved. "Politics for Dummies" will make your transition to knowledgeable voter and good citizen almost painless.
