Modern World Nations series.
The focus in these books is on geography and the economy, although history, people, and culture are also discussed. Written for report writers (and not likely to engage others), the authors offer substantial information, some analysis, and usually their own solutions to contemporary issues. Occasional color and black-and-white photos (some washed-out looking) help break up the text. Reading list, timeline, websites. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these Modern World Nations titles: Ukraine and Russia.
