YACultures of the World series.
The books in this series will be helpful to report-writing students. In these revised editions, economic and political information has been brought up to date, the color photographs are well reproduced, and the emphasis on the traditional arts and customs of each country has not changed. The economic and cultural maps, a time line, and a list of websites are useful features. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Cultures of the World titles: Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Japan, India.]
