THIS SERIES EXPLORES HOW PEOPLE LIVE IN THE WORLD
TODAY—INFLUENCED BY THEIR ANCESTORS BUT IN TANDEM
WITH THE DEMANDS AND EXPECTATIONS OF MODERN LIFE.
Exploring history and religion, family and friends, school and work, arts and
leisure, and architecture and the built environment, the series celebrates
what makes key countries unique magnets for the world’s fascination. Italy’s
obsession with fast cars, France’s artisanal industries, Japan’s tea ceremony,
Mexico’s monumental Aztec structures—these traditions and more are
celebrated in Major Nations in a Global World.
