American Government 3e (OpenStax audio textbook)

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. The OpenStax American Government 3e audio textbook is produced by Audileo, an official OpenStax Technology Partner. The audiobook recording has been created from the December 2024 web version of American Government 3e by OpenStax. It may be more up-to-date than the textbook published in 2021. American Government 3e aligns with the topics and objectives of many government courses. Faculty involved in the project have endeavored to make government workings, issues, debates, and impacts meaningful and memorable to students while maintaining the conceptual coverage and rigor inherent in the subject. With this objective in mind, the content of this textbook has been developed and arranged to provide a logical progression from the fundamental principles of institutional design at the founding, to avenues of political participation, to thorough coverage of the political structures that constitute American government. The book builds upon what students have already learned and emphasizes connections between topics as well as between theory and applications. The goal of each section is to enable students not just to recognize concepts, but to work with them in ways that will be useful in later courses, future careers, and as engaged citizens. This is an audio adaptation of American Government 3e by OpenStax. You can access the textbook as pdf for free at openstax.org.
