But Woodchuck, once the property of Sam's eccentric uncle, has seen better days and will need a serious overhaul if it is going to stand a chance at survival. Soon Sam and Swami learn they are not the only ones looking for change and profit on the river. A competing rafting outfit, clashing raft guides, stubborn townsfolk, and an exploratory mining company begin to threaten their tenuous livelihood. Then nature intervenes, in the form of historic floods throughout the Midwest. Amid tumultuous currents both on and off the river, Sam and Swami struggle to maintain the new life they've built. Before the summer draws to a close, the Brechts must learn to face the floodwaters together in order to create a sustainable future for their family, the town, and the pristine river from which it all flows."--

Political analysis is an age-old process and practice by world thinkers and statesmen. The concept of politics specifically, the type of political system, governance, Liberty equality, and law implementation process always play a pivotal role in carving out a holistic system that unleashes the betterment of the entire human community. The needs of the human community are shaped and reshaped by the political system in the modern era. Nonetheless, political systems such as democracy aristocracy, dictatorship, and different versions of democratic governance are prevailing from the age of antiquity. Albeit of the nation-building process and concepts, scholars pointed out that there is a decline in political theory. Moreover there exist also skirmishes between value- Laden and fact- inclination. One school of thought bolsters the cause of a purely scientific approach to political science where as another school speaks about value Laden. It is in order to convert political science into pure science attempts were made and the outcomes are behaviouralism, post-behaviorism systems theory, structural-functional theory, communication theory, game theory, decision-making theory so on and so forth. In this junction, this book on modern political analysis attempts to fathom varied versions of the scientific methods in political science and the value crisis indeed.
