21st Century Debates series.
This global look at public health covers both Third World and First World issues, allowing readers to examine problems in a worldwide context.

River Journey series.
This overview of the Rhine and its environs covers topics thematically (nature, history, people, change, and economy) and is organized by geographic regions. The author takes readers from the river's source to the end--almost as if offering a guided tour. Extended by well-captioned photos, the accessible text is up to date and will be useful to report writers. Addresses, reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
