N2  - "In this updated edition of his classic text, Joseph E. Zimmerman offers a balanced presentation of the institutions and political processes of the Empire State. He emphasizes the legal foundations of the state as they influence greatly the behavior of leading public officers and interest groups. Most importantly, constitutional restrictions on the state legislature and local governments are examined, as well as the ingenious ways by which several restrictions upon the state legislature have been circumvented."--Jacket
