Synopsis: &“Engaging and inspiring . . . Reading this book should make you want to vote.&”—Barack Obama In a world of sound bites, deliberate misinformation, and a political scene colored by the blue versus red partisan divide, how does the average educated American find a reliable source that&’s free of political spin? What You Should Know About Politics . . . But Don&’t breaks it all down, issue by issue, explaining who stands for what, and why—whether it&’s the economy, income inequality, Obamacare, foreign policy, education, immigration, or climate change. If you&’re a Democrat, a Republican, or somewhere in between, it&’s the perfect book to brush up on a single topic or read through to get a deeper understanding of the often murky world of American politics. This is an essential volume for understanding the background to the 2024 presidential election. But it is also a book that transcends the season. It&’s truly for anyone who wants to know more about the perennial issues that will continue to affect our everyday lives. The fifth edition includes an introduction by Martin Garbus discussing the themes and issues that have come to the fore during the present presidential cycle.
