I think that those taking Comparative Politics should definitely read this book. I personally, as well as my class, had issues reading this textbook because of how dense it was. Our teacher recommend buying the AP Comparative Government and Politics: An Essential Coursebook and Study Guide, 5th ed by Ethel Wood. I did find the Ethel Wood much more helpful. The Wood book was easier to read and had helpful tests and vocabulary tips.
