I like that Public Opinion: Democratic Ideas, Democratic Practicehelps my students think more deeply about the processes by which citizens learn about politics, the motivations behind their beliefs, and the biases they bring to political thinking. It facilitates a more sophisticated understanding of citizens as political actors., Clawson and Oxley's Public Opinion: Democratic Ideals, Democratic Practiceis smart, yet accessible to my students. I appreciate that its length and organization has allowed me to use it for both quarter and semester length courses, Clawson and Oxley's book is impressive: it offers broad coverage of the relevant areas of interest, but places public opinion in the context of the broader democracy...I especially appreciate the coverage of political trust.

Seller feedback (36)
- l***x (1006)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI bought 2 ceiling fan lamps described as new. They were new in box. However, one worked fine, the other did not work at all. I contacted the seller who said that they were reselling them, but I was unable to obtain a warranty because I was not the original buyer. The seller wanted me to pay for shipping. I told the seller that I had found a way to replace the remote controller, but they didn’t want to pay for the part. They offered a partial refund ($20) but that didn’t even cover the part.
- *****- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchase1. I bought THREE sherwanis from this seller and they were amazing! I was a bit on a rush and the seller went above and beyond to help me get the dressess before a wedding. Thank you SO much for the awesome service and dedication to help me have the dressess on time. If anyone is looking for a nehru, kurta, or sherwani, this is definitely the place you should get it from!
