Mona Field

Mona Field knows California politics from the inside: born and bred in California, beginning her political involvement in her teens, and later serving 4 terms in elected office. CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS TODAY is a bestseller in its field - the first edition was in 1973, and updated versions continue with a planned 15th edition in 2018. There have been many imitations but no text has sold as successfully and continuously. Updated content plus online interactive materials make this the best choice for a brief, yet thorough, overview of California's political scene, economy, social and cultural panorama, and environment. Read it and you will see why it's been around for over 40 years, getting better and better!
