You will find a wide-ranging exploration of the cultures, beliefs, homes, jobs, traditions and everyday lives of the six billion people who inhabit our planet. This book will take you on a continent-by-continent journey through remote rainforest villages, vibrant cities, noisy carnivals, and bustling shanty towns, looking at national festivals, customs and traditions, religious beliefs and rituals, where people live and what their homes look like, the food people eat and the clothes they wear, how people travel and how governments work.
