Reviews for Introducing Politics for AS Level
"It might be invidious to compare books in a review, but ... my view was quickly to prefer Holmes’. Often goes beyond what students need for AS, and will even do nicely for much of what is necessary at A2 ... Holmes’ book is substantial enough for even the most politics-hungry AS student."
