Enjoy this audiobook with MP3 Audiobook Player - the ultimate iOS audiobook experience
This revised and updated edition of a core textbook - one of the most well-established texts in the field of comparative politics - offers a comprehensive introduction to the comparison of governments and political systems, helping students to understand not just the institutions and political cultures of their own countries but also those of a wide range of democracies and authoritarian regimes from around the world. The book opens with an overview of key theories and methods for studying comparative politics and moves on to a study of major institutions and themes, such as the state, constitutions and courts, elections, voters, interest groups and political economy. In addition, two common threads run throughout the chapters in this edition - the reversal of democracy and declining trust in government - ensuring that the book fully accounts for the rapid developments in politics that have taken place across the world in recent times. Written by a team of experienced textbook authors and featuring a range of engaging learning features, this book is an essential text for undergraduate and postgraduate courses on comparative politics, comparative government, introduction to politics and introduction to political science. New to this Edition: - New and extended coverage of important topics such as authoritarian states, identities, ethnicity and political violence- A brand new chapter on political economy- An engaging new page design, in full colour for the first time- An enhanced companion website, now providing an extensive testbank of questions for lecturers- Publishing alongside John McCormick's new book on Cases in Comparative Government and Politics (October 2019), which offers more detailed coverage of the cases covered in this text.
This app has transformed my daily routine into moments of literary delight. Audiobook immersion made simple – this app's ease of use is commendable. Great for both casual listening and studying. The audio filters are a nice touch.
The ListenBook app has transformed my device into a portable audiobook library that I can carry everywhere. ListenBook Pro's noise reduction feature is a game-changer. It enhances the clarity of recordings and makes my listening sessions more enjoyable. Perfect for listening to educational content. Highly recommend! Decent narration, predictable story. The voice actor did a good job, but the plot followed a familiar formula. If you’re looking for something new and groundbreaking, this might not be it. This was an adequate audiobook for casual listening. The narrator maintained a consistent pace and clear diction throughout, though their performance lacked some emotional range. The audio quality was fine with no significant technical distractions.
I used to struggle to find time for books – now, I listen while doing chores! The fact that ListenBook doesn't just play, but enhances audio quality, is truly remarkable.

The narrators on this app are truly talented – they bring characters to life. I can't believe I waited this long to discover the joy of audiobooks through this app. Tone adjustment is so cool.

The fact that ListenBook supports a wide range of formats without DRM protection is a huge win. I can't imagine my life without this app – it's my constant source of books. I've found my new favorite narrator! Their voice was perfectly suited to this material, with just the right blend of authority and approachability. The production quality was broadcast-level - no distracting breaths, clicks, or inconsistent volume. Already looking for more of their work.
