Political Behavior of the American Electorate

Political Behavior of the American Electorate This book is great for use as a textbook in undergraduate or masters level political science class. The authors use survey data of voters and research from others to explain voter behavior, political parties, and the cyclical political shifts that occur in United States elections.

misunderstading the point

OK, the previous reviews are clearly misunderstanding the purpose of such a book. This is essentially a simplified overview of research in political behavior. It's simple, readable, straight forward, etc. Social scientists seek to investigate phenomena that might seem "common sense" in order to find evidence for or against these conclusions. The charts and graphs don't all match because they are derived from different studies, and pulled together here. This is not original research, it is a quick, concise summary of other research - which is useful for students.
