Описание: Is the so-called traditional `nuclear` family in decline? It is now no longer considered unusual for children to grow up in a stepfamily, be raised by a lone parent or same-sex couple or to be adopted. Here, developing family trends are considered, alongside the impact that these changes have had on parenting and child-rearing. The information comes from a variety of sources, including government reports and statistics, newspapers and magazine articles, surveys and polls, academic research and literature from charities and lobby groups; articles have been tailored to an 11 to 14 age group. Additionally, at the end of each chapter are two pages of activities relating to the articles and issues raised in that chapter.

Описание: How do we engage with the pressing challenges of xenophobia, radicalism and security in the age of the `war on terror`? The widely felt sense of insecurity in the West is shared by Muslims both within and outside Western societies. Growing Islamic militancy and resulting increased security measures by Western powers have contributed to a pervasive sense among Muslims of being under attack (both physically and culturally). "Islam and Political Violence" brings together the current debate on the uneasy and potentially mutually destructive relationship between the Muslim world and the West and argues we are on a dangerous trajectory, strengthening dichotomous notions of the divide between the West and the Muslim world.
