Notes

1 See my “A Review of Recent American Sovernment Textbooks and Readers,” NEWS, Call 1981. Additional texts may be available from smaller publishers. For example, after the 1981 teview article appeared, Raymond Chambers informed me about his paperback introductory text Understanding American Government,published by Pilgrimage, Inc. in Jonesboro, Tennessee.

2 lt is not clear whether this book was intendsd specifically as a text or as a supplement, but because it includes many of the topics normally deluded in an American government text, it is sonsidered here as a text.

3 For more detail, see my “Approaches to Public Policy in the Introductory American Govsrnment Course,” presented at the Teaching Political Science Conference, University of Nebraska at Omaha, April 1-2, 1982.

4 “Starling's chapter 13 on government and. the economy may contain more information on this topic than the others, but that could not be determined because the text is not available for examination prior to deadline.
