the central concepts in the field of Global Studies. Former President of the
Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev says, “The book is intelligent, rich in
content and, I believe, necessary in our complex, turbulent, and fragile
world.” 300 authors from 50 countries contributed 450 entries. The
contributors include scholars, researchers, and professionals in social,
natural, and technological sciences. They cover globalization problems within
ecology, business, economics, politics, culture, and law. This
interdisciplinary collection provides a basis for understanding the concepts
and methods within global studies and for accessing lengthier and more technical research in the field. The articles treat such
important topics as the biosphere, ozone depletion, land resources and pollution, world health challenges, education, global modeling, sustainable
development, war, weapons of mass destruction, and terrorism. The book also
promotes academic cooperation, political dialogue, and mutual understanding
across diverse traditions and national identities that are needed to engage
successfully the many daunting challenges of globalization. Please
