Author Description

Delivering a thoroughly updated analysis of practices and policies, Brown/Langenegger/Garcia/Biles/Rynbrandt/Reyna/Huerta's PRACTICING TEXAS POLITICS, ENHANCED, 17th Edition, gives you an insider's look at how public-policy making is conducted in the Lone Star State. It includes a special focus on the role of a growing Latino population in all aspects of Texas government, the effects of the 2018 elections on the state and the impact of a volatile oil and gas industry on state finances. Point/Counterpoint features offer opposing views of key controversial issues, illustrating that there is rarely a single right answer to an issue. How Do We Compare? boxes spotlight the differences between Texas and other states, while Students in Action features provide stories of students making meaningful difference in their colleges, communities or the state.
