assigned for my class - Fortunately the lead co-author is pretty good.

I took a graduate level American Politics course from Tom Dye who is author of The Irony Of Democracy. That used to be one of the most used introductory political science textbooks in the nation. I don't know if it still is.

Professor Dye leaned right. However he was not obnoxious about it.
