Parts of Jordan's desert look so isolated that filmmakers have used them as a stand-in for the planet Mars Although this area, known as Wadi Rum, is one of Jordan's most famous features, there is much more to this country than just empty desert. Readers learn about the people of Jordan--and their unique culture--in this comprehensive guide. As readers discover the connection between history, current events, and cultural development, they explore the concept of global citizenship and are encouraged to develop an appreciation for other cultures. Stunning photographs, fact boxes, sidebars, and recipes enhance this educational experience.
