1. What changes were made to the textbook?
Nearly every section of every chapter has been altered significantly, resulting in a more forceful, grounded, and comprehensive examination of the nation's most important political office. The development editor, Danna Lockwood, helped with the structure and flow, while copyeditor Jenn Backer was meticulous and indefatigable. Reviewers offered superb suggestions for revisions, which were incorporated. Research assistance was provided by Gabe Foy-Sutherland, Zachary Garai, Katia Kukucka, and Ben Konstan. Allison Von Borstel updated nearly every table and figure, and Simon Lane made crucial interventions into the early chapters. Mike Wiley's ideas and prose can be seen throughout the volume, helping to reimagine the textbook. The book is dedicated to the author's children, Charles Howell and Frances Howell.
