Description: While change is the only constant in politics and society, the US political system's ability to evolve accordingly has waned over time as increasingly complex decision making systems and institutions complicate political processes. This volume examines the many facets of American thinkers--from Thomas Paine to Rosa Parks--whose innovations have contributed to the American consciousness.--Provided by publisher
