Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The State and Government This book is intended for the general reader, not for the specialist, and should be judged accordingly. It does not purport to be a sketchy description of present-day states and governments discussed from the comparative point of view; yet the hope is indulged that Sufficient illustrative mate rial has been used to make clear the underlying principles of the state, and its agent the government.
