SynopsisTom Patterson's We the People is a concise approach to American government, emphasizing critical thinking through questions and examples relevant to today's students. This exceptionally readable text provides opportunities to engage with the political process through tools that help students learn how to think about politics, utilizing digital resources that connect learners with the material in a personalized way. Each chapter features provocative boxes that ask students to think critically about contemporary questions, including How the U.S. Differs and How the 50 States Differ and Fake or Fact? , all of which provide tools for students to assess data and claims for themselves. Finally, each chapter includes suggestions on how the student can participate as a citizen of our democracy. The suggestions are categorized by the founding principle they embody--liberty, equality, or self-government--reinforcing the relevance of these principles today.
