Presidents and the American Presidency, Fourth Edition, engages students in the study of the presidency through an exploration of both the political institution and those who have held the office.

Considering both the strengths and the weaknesses of the office, authors Lori Cox Han and Diane J. Heith move beyond purely theoretical analysis to examine the real-life, day-to-day responsibilities and challenges of the presidency. Drawing upon a foundation based on archival documents, historical and contemporary issues, and extensive coverage of methodology, this comprehensive text combines the presidency-centred and president-centred approach to chronicle the evolution of the office. Along with up-to-date presidency research (both qualitative and quantitative), each chapter includes several special sections. Then and Now looks at one key issue using a comparative two-case-study approach with a recent and historical example. In Their Own Words uses archival documents to allow a president and/or members of their administration to articulate their positions and perspectives--in their own words. Researching the Presidency presents a scholarly debate within the subfield, and Diversifying the Presidency considers both recent progress and future challenges in bringing more diverse representation to the institution of the presidency.
