Martha Hodes, a historian, recounts her experience as a passenger on an airliner hijacked in 1970. She and her sister were flying back to New York City from Israel when their plane was hijacked by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. Despite being too young to understand the gravity of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Martha suppressed her fear and anxiety. Nearly a half-century later, her memories of the six days and nights as a hostage are hazy and scattered. Through archival research, childhood memories, and conversations with relatives, friends, and fellow hostages, Martha aims to re-create what happened to her and those at home. The story sheds light on the hostage crisis and her own fractured family and childhood sorrows.

    This is a home where a man’s word is law—no matter which of them is the man. 
      
    I’m used to giving the orders, so when my wife produces a pair of magic potions for the bedroom, she only demurely suggests we drink. A suggestion I will come to regret—or will I? 
      
    As I am turned into a stunning model of the feminine side, I am amazed to find the hot man who used to be my wife now makes my mouth water—a mouth that wants to wrap around that firm rod. 
      
    But not before doing the dishes and getting that sweet new rear end of mine bent over the sink, where my newfound innocence will be taken. 
      
    How much can I take before I turn back to a man, and will I ever be the same?

    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.

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.

    A masterly introduction to the United States Constitution, this concise book leads the reader through an overview of the document’s individual articles and amendments. With clear and accessible language, Currie then examines each of the three branches of the federal government and explains the relation between the federal and state governments. He analyzes those constitutional provisions that are designed to protect citizens from governmental interference, such as the due process and equal protection clauses and the confusing first amendment provisions respecting the separation of church and state and includes discussions of judicial review and freedom of speech and of the press.
     
    A sympathetic yet critical guide, Currie’s book enables students and laypersons to understand one of the cornerstones of the Western political tradition. The second edition incorporates the Supreme Court decisions that have affected constitutional interpretation.
     
    “Superb . . . highly recommended for those seeking a reliable, understandable, and useful introduction to our constitution.”—Appellate Practice Journal and Update
