Texas Politics: Individuals Making a Difference

This Texas politics text encourages students to participate in government by emphasizing--through anecdotes and examples--how they can make a difference in their state and community. Local government is covered early in the text, and important policy issues such as criminal justice, health and human services, education, and the budget are discussed in separate chapters. Texas in Context boxes in every chapter outline similarities (or differences) between Texas and other large states. Chapter-opening vignettes highlight Texans who have made a difference in state and local politics.Momayezi, Nasser is the author of 'Texas Politics: Individuals Making a Difference' with ISBN 9780618000289 and ISBN 0618000283.
