"Life in Libya is complex. The people who live in this North African nation have faced social and political strife, but they have also found ways to continue the development of their rich culture-from the art they create to the holidays they celebrate. Readers discover the geographical, economic, and political factors that have created the nation of Libya as we know it today. In addition, they are introduced to the global citizens working to make life better in Libya and around the world. Full-color photographs, sidebars, maps, recipes, and fact boxes are presented alongside the comprehensive main text"--Provided by publisher. |
