Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £9.10
This is a concise revision guide in easy to understand language. It suggests additional reading and research which would have been really useful to have at the beginning of the course - life would have been easier. I am sorry that there doesnt seem to be a similar guide for A2 study.

76.The Design of Dissent: Socially and Politically Driven Graphics by: Milton Glaser October 01, 2006
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £19.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £13.99 You Save: £6.00 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £14.67
Anyone interested in graphics and/or politics....maybe even if these things don't interest you, will appreciate this book. I say "excellently and thoughtfully collected and constructed", for these reasons. Although there is very much a modern and liberal stance in the collection, the pictures are left to do the talking- with explanations which are kept simple but informative. The examples are all high quality- and graphics from both view points in some issues are included- such as the Arab-Israeli conflict. Of course the best thing about this book, and quite rightly the focus, is the graphics. As you would expect, there are so many different approaches taken and so many styles and media used. It proves that both the ... Read More:

77.The Political Brain: How People Vote and How to Change Their Minds: The Role of Emotion in Deciding the Fate of the Nation by: Drew Westen June 07, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £7.60
The book is written by a Democrat party strategist and qualified experimental psychologist, who believes that style often wins over substance in political campaigns. The central claim of the book is that voters react more to emotional appeals and rousing speeches than they do to reason, logic and statistics. The author argues that even if a candidate is superior in logic and reason, he will still lose if he faces a charismatic opponent who knows how to work an audience and make powerful emotional appeals. One useful feature of the book is how the author provides transcripts of US Presidential debates, and pin points the moment at which the debate "turned", usually as the result of a witty put down, or rousing response. He then suggests ... Read More:

78.Poisoned Wells: The Dirty Politics of African Oil by: Nicholas Shaxson March 20, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £16.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £11.89 You Save: £5.10 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £4.22
This book introduces political and economic life in several West African countries. Each chapter focusses on a key individual - a top politician, a corruption busting judge, a top musician etc - and uses their tales to spell out why the relevant country has been held back rather than boosted by discovering oil. With a light and engaging style (from having been a journalist) Shaxson lifts the lid on a heavy and disturbing subject - how oil revenues mess up the economics and politics of the countries where it is discovered. And not only those countries - the same money has oiled the wheels of dodgy political dealings in France and other countries. The book ends with an analysis of the role of opaque offshore finance and some ... Read More:

80.Moral Politics: How Liberals and Conservatives Think by: G Lakoff June 10, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £13.00 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £8.91
Lakoff's theory is that people instinctively see the state as being like a family. Because liberals and conservatives have different views of how families should operate, they have different views of how states should operate. Liberals have a "nurturant parent" worldview, in which the right way to bring up children is to love them unconditionally and to allow them to "be themselves". Conservatives have a "strict father" worldview in which the right way to bring up children is to teach them obedience and self reliance. People might not realise it, but they have unconscious emotional reasons for holding the political views they have, and a big influence on this is how people are brought up. Because liberals and conservatives have such deeply held and ... Read More:
