Abstract
Description
The book, SKIP'S DETAILS IN GOVERNMENT can be rightly described as Mr.
Aniefiok A. I song's Magnum Opus" because from the preface to the end of the 1ndex
on page 240, one sees a budding scholar from Obbrong, Nkari in ln1 Local
Government Area of Akwa lbom State bring1ng to sharp focus all what the New
policy on Education 6-3-3-4 system has to offer for Government at the Senior
Secondary Level.
In chapter one, the author did not only show that Homo sapiens are gregarious, he
went further to give a series of definitions of Government and the scope of the
subject matter. Government, according to the author, could be "defined as an
institution or machinery setup within the state to mange the affairs oft he state"
(lsong,2002:1 ). He quoted Thomas Hobbes to drive home the importance of
government in any society thus: "Man's life without government is nasty, poor,
brutish and short".
