<P>This guide is a useful tool to research urban politics and policy in the United States. The guide’s thematic and narrative structure allows students to dip into a topic in urban politics for deeper historical and comparative context than would be possible in either an A-to-Z encyclopedia entry or in an urban studies course text. The guide includes a compilation of relevant topical data, a timeline on major historical developments, and biographical information on relevant historical figures. </P>
