From the Back Cover

Clear writing and vivid, current examples help readers to better understand their roles as global citizens.
The book is divided into three parts:
Part I focuses on the challenges of global inequalities: in life chances, wages and work, gender and education.

Part III focuses on the issue of sustainability and the problems of urbanization, crowding, and environmental destruction.
