Review: Concise and easy to understand - I give this book 5 stars, for being exactly as I hoped for. A brief introduction on the most basic and fundamental subjects in politics. It has achieved its aspirations, by explaining politics in a simple to understand language. Has given enough information in order to understand the key points, but not too much that I would feel like I am wasting my time reading it. Review: Great book - Really good book to have on a coffee table or somewhere for a casual read. My degree is in political science and this book is very accurate and covers a good amount of history. I saw it at my ex girlfriends house and I bought it for myself, great graphics and a very good quality book. Under priced in my opinion, you will not be disapointed, they also have more in the series if you are interested ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,037,677 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #179 in Political Reference #279 in Comparative Politics #2,346 in History & Theory of Politics | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,632 Reviews | ## Images ![The Politics Book - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81wZUou4F7L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Concise and easy to understand *by A***M on July 2, 2019* I give this book 5 stars, for being exactly as I hoped for. A brief introduction on the most basic and fundamental subjects in politics. It has achieved its aspirations, by explaining politics in a simple to understand language. Has given enough information in order to understand the key points, but not too much that I would feel like I am wasting my time reading it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book *by G***E on December 22, 2013* Really good book to have on a coffee table or somewhere for a casual read. My degree is in political science and this book is very accurate and covers a good amount of history. I saw it at my ex girlfriends house and I bought it for myself, great graphics and a very good quality book. Under priced in my opinion, you will not be disapointed, they also have more in the series if you are interested ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Politics *by A***A on February 6, 2021* What a mountain of knowledge! Just to my taste and upbuilding. To the extent that I lost my right of copying more text. So I grabbed another means, screenshots. Now I have a system of screenshots. But, in the end, they are not very practical as notes. Better scroll the book on and on. A good model for the structure of any ebook form textbook. I am just constructting one. Have read Philosophy as my first DK revolutionary easy readers. Am intending to read the whole lot of them as a well-earned dessert as an 83 year oldboy economics professor. Have already ordered Religion and a couple of others. Warmly recommend to anybody. Kindle introduction word to word confirmed. Five stars generously earned. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hk/products/70189823-the-politics-book](https://www.desertcart.hk/products/70189823-the-politics-book) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hong Kong* *Store origin: HK* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
