“

This well-written, thoughtful series uses international and historical perspectives to analyze contemporary issues. This set shows readers that the impact of world issues is far more reaching and complex than the phrase current events might imply. VERDICT: Primary purchases for teen collections, especially those with a need for titles on international affairs.
