Reviews

?Each volume has enough topics and in-depth information that any social studies class doing comparative cultures and history will find very useful information here beyond what is in a general encyclopedia or what they can find on that country's Web site....Since the series concentrates on many third world countries and the authors are very knowledgable, we find the series valuable for hard-to-find, in-depth and current cultural information. Recommended.?-Blanche Woolls & David Loertscher

?The author's considerable bibliography and perceptive notes point the way ahead for those will doubtless be captivated by this fascinating yet under-appreciated nation.?-The British Bulletin of Publications
