If you seek to understand what constitutes the major aspects of Political Science as a discipline, start with this book.

The author presents a balanced overview. He cites important historical and current resources related to the various sub-disciplines, and provides recommended readings for individuals who want to pursue specific topics through further independent study.

Personally, I recommend purchasing both the audio and print (or Kindle) versions.

Very informative, easy to understand.

I loved the speaker, he never lost my attention, but by me being new to politics it was like I heard his every pleasant word, But I still want to listen again until I get all the nook and crannies out. After all, considering all the information covered in this book, I strongly recommend this book!

Comprehensive coverage of topic

Enjoyed the book for comprehensive coverage of the topic. However, some sections are very US-centric and has a biased view, nonetheless enjoyed the book.
