Illustrated with full-color, specially commissioned photographs and informative maps, "The Countries of the World" series draws students into some of the world's most interesting and important countries with current, detailed information on virtually everything that defines life in a particular place, from economy and the environment to geography and social trends. The books trace similar paths through life in each country, making them useful for comparative studies or for an in-depth look into a single country. Each attractively designed book contains a wealth of information presented in easy-to-read text, valuable case studies that highlight important topics (such as a flooding, a particular industry, a specific example of urban regeneration, or an environmental problem), and key statistics as well as clearly formulated charts and diagrams.
