By Multiple Authors
The Complete Eight-Volume Set!
Begun in 1966, The World Today Series offers a deep look into every nation. As
events become more remote, their descriptions are condensed with each new
edition. This allows room to present the important, current happenings that have
occurred since publication of the previous edition, along with insightful discussion
of the reasons they occurred and the implications for the future. The result is a
series of well-proportioned, complete, and very up-to-date texts that focus on
current events—uncluttered with unnecessary and repetitive background detail.
Available in both print and e-book formats and priced low to fit student and library budgets!
