This series is excellent for taking primers (origninally from Oxford University Press) by leading professors and spicing them up with color illustrations and photos. In addition, this title updates the original through the 2008 election. It covers the constitutional duties and powers of the chief executive, reviews the President's role in domestic and foreign policy, covers election results and relations with Congress. It's a quick interesting read for all citizens, not just students.
