About the book

Public Opinion

In Public Opinion: Democratic Ideals, Democratic Practice, Fifth Edition, Rosalee Clawson, Zoe Oxley, and new coauthor Amanda Bittner offer students an accessible and engaging introduction to the study of public opinion.

The text explores the tension between ideals and their practice through a series of questions: In a democratic society, what should be the relationship between citizens and their government? Are citizens’ opinions pliable? Are they knowledgeable, attentive, and informed? Each chapter focuses on exemplary studies, explaining not only the conclusion of the research but also how it was conducted, helping students gain a richer understanding of the research process and see methods applied in context.
