By city state Greece I assume you mean Archaic-Classical-Early Hellenist Greece.
My favorite introductory book recommendation would be:
Ancient Greece: A Political, Social and Cultural History by Pomeroy, Burstein, Donlan, and Roberts.
For and in-depth look at Athens (a very untypical polis/city state in any and most respects) try:
http://www.stoa.org/projects/demos/home
http://www.stoa.org/athens/ (for pictures)
A related site offers a very detailed picture of late classical Olynthus (Philip made sure it did not make it into the Hellenistic era) derived from archeology.

IN PATROCINIVM SVB Dromikaites
'One day when I fly with my hands - up down the sky, like a bird'
But if the cause be not good, the king himself hath a heavy reckoning to make, when all those legs and arms and heads, chopped off in battle, shall join together at the latter day and cry all 'We died at such a place; some swearing, some crying for surgeon, some upon their wives left poor behind them, some upon the debts they owe, some upon their children rawly left.
Hyperides of Athens: We know, replied he, that Antipater is good, but we (the Demos of Athens) have no need of a master at present, even a good one.

Also, the first half of the book "The Classical World" by Robert Lane Fox provides a good overview of the Greek system.
