The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Children`s Issues Worldwide: Six Volumes

2007 y.
Publisher: Greenwood Press
Description: From the skyrocketing AIDS rate in Haiti to the oppressive pollution in industrial China, from the violent street culture of Nigeria to the crippling poverty in Nicaragua, from child trafficking in Thailand to child marriages in India, this jam-packed six-volume set explores all these issues and more in an unprecedented look at the world`s children at the dawn of the 21st century. In recent years, while many countries have enjoyed a higher standard of living and improved working conditions, others have been torn apart by war and incapacitated by famine, and are struggling to improve life for their children and their future. Recent concern over the world`s children has resulted in a global attempt to define what constitutes an acceptable childhood. New attention has been paid, not only to healthcare and secondary education, but also to the right to play and increased access to technology. The United Nations` codification of children`s rights has done much to expand our understanding of… [detailed...]

The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Homes through World History [Three Volumes]

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The house, throughout history, in every place in the world, has been built to provide shelter from the elements. The dwellings that have resulted are as different as the people that have built them, the social norms that prevailed at the time and place in which they were built and the natural environment that they adapted to. Studying them now in a comprehensive way allows us to understand the social, political, economic and religious conditions that existed for their inhabitants. They are a three-dimensional record of culture. Twenty-four pages of color images, along with black and white images through three volumes, illustrate the homes of people throughout the world. Volume 1:Ancient Times to the Late Middle Ages Volume 2: Renaissance to the Industrial Revolution Volume 3: Post Industrial Revolution to the Present.

The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Love, Courtship, and Sexuality through History

2007 y.
Publisher: Greenwood Press
Description: Sex and love are central to daily life and to all nations. But despite the universality of these sentiments, their expression is largely shaped by the cultures in which they occur. Thus the ancient Greek understanding of love and sexuality is very different from the modern American one, for example, and even within particular cultures there is a great deal of variation. This massive set gives students and general readers a sweeping survey of love and sexuality across periods, places, and cultures. Entries cover a wide range of subjects, including customs and practices, authors and works, concepts and institutions, and various other topics. Thus the Encyclopedia defines love and sexuality in terms of cultural contexts. The set includes volumes on particular eras. These are: Volume 1: The Ancient World Volume 2: The Medieval Era Volume 3: The Early Modern Period Volume 4: The Colonial and Revolutionary Era Volume 5: The Nineteenth Century Volume 6: The Modern World. Each volume is… [detailed...]
