Reviews

This informative series provides essential research material on global events from recent decades. Each topic is placed in historical context; for example, the author asks readers to consider ­Martin ­Luther’s theses as “going viral” while discussing social media, and gives ­background material about refugee crises and destructive storms while explaining those subjects. The text is information-heavy, but surrounded by plenty of white space, full-page photos, and sidebars, all of which help to break up the text. The­ ­accompanying photos are expertly ­chosen to grab readers’ attention and bring ­moments in history to life. The books include a ­glossary, bibliography, and index. ­VERDICT This is excellent research material for ­current events.
