Country File series.
Double-page spreads focus on various topics, including Kenya's land, resources, education, and government. While the coverage is superficial, the text is straightforward, and effective use of topical maps and charts enhances understanding of the material. Sidebars, related websites, and color photos on each spread add interest. Glos., ind.

Country File series.
This book briefly touches on the basics (e.g., land, resources, education, history). While the coverage is superficial, the book is distinguished by its effective use of charts and maps to illustrate topics, such as a pie chart for religion and a map showing average rainfall in various parts of Brazil. Sidebars, related websites, and color photos on each double-page spread add interest. Glos., ind.
