Ad Lib lands 'accessible' guide to US politics from Cooper

Ad Lib has landed How America Works... and Why It Doesn’t, a brief and "accessible" guide to US politics, from William Cooper.

Editorial director Duncan Proudfoot acquired world all-language rights directly from the author. The book will be published in paperback, e-book and audiobook ahead of the next US presidential election in May 2024. 

Cooper is an lawyer and columnist and also the author of Stress Test: How Donald Trump Threatens American Democracy (Eyewear Publishing). He commented: "I couldn’t be more excited to work with Ad Lib Publishers on my book How America Works... And Why It Doesn’t. Ad Lib’s talented team of seasoned experts on both the editorial and publicity sides are the ideal partners for publishing this important and timely book about American politics." 

Proudfoot added: "Will Cooper is the perfect non-partisan, rational and engaging guide to the United States’ embattled political system, including the Supreme Court, revealing clearly not only why things are the way they are, but also the precise nature of the ongoing, serious threat to American democracy."
