Employing these tools, the later chapters examine the major trends and challenges that face todays rapidly globalizing world. Students are asked to consider how they can participate actively in shaping the events that affect their lives. Among the books pedagogical features are well over one hundred Web sites, organized by chapter and topic, which connect the text with contemporary events and commentary.
