| Publisher Description: Written for the smart and engaged middle school student, Your World, Better looks at how America and the World has changed since the reader's parents and grandparents were young: what has happened to health and wealth, homes, school and work, rights and democracy, war and the environment, happiness and depression. It reports the positive trends, the problems that remain and what we can do about them. All author royalties from sales will be donated to UNICEF."Everyone, no matter how old, or how young, should read this. I'm sending to grandkids and their parents." --Nancy Birdsall"Great read for middle school kids who want to understand how the world is getting better -- and can become even more so!" --Parag Khanna"If you know a middle school student or teacher, pass this along! Incredibly fresh and honest." --Karen Schulte "Kids are taught that everything's getting worse and we're all doomed--factually incorrect, and a message that leads to cynicism & fatalism, not constructive action. An antidote: Charles Kenny's new Your World, Better..." --Steven Pinker |
