Books in the Contemporary World Issues series address vital
issues in today’s society such as terrorism, sexual harassment,
homelessness, AIDS, gambling, animal rights, and air pollution.
Written by professional writers, scholars, and nonacademic
experts, these books are authoritative, clearly written, up-to-
date, and objective. They provide a good starting point for
research by high school and college students, scholars, and
general readers as well as by legislators, businesspeople,
activists, and others.
Each book, carefully organized and easy to use, contains an
overview of the subject; a detailed chronology; biographical
sketches; facts and data and/or documents and other primary-
source material; a directory of organizations and agencies;
annotated lists of print and nonprint resources; a glossary; and
an index.
Readers of books in the Contemporary World Issues series will
find the information they need in order to better understand the
social, political, environmental, and economic issues facing the
world today.
