This Wikibook follows the coursework of American Government, Institutions and Policies, Ninth Edition by James Q. Wilson. If you use the book, the following table of contents will make a lot of sense when following the course. The table of contents follows the book, but the content does not come from the book. Rather, it is based upon it and can be used as a study guide.

Each chapter will include, when completed, vocabulary terms, conceptual terms, brief outlines, and review questions. Feel free to add any additional resources. If adding questions, make sure to add answers under Appendix A.
