if you take world heritage & world culture seriously

The "Report to the UNESCO" of the year 1990 was written by an international group of experts. They give a short (and consequently incomplete) overview of world cultures, comprised in chapters ("The North American Culture") This is NOT a travel guide or an academic research. The book is a report praising the diversity of our planet, giving enough reasons to wish it would always stay that way. 10 years after the report was written, the globalization debate renewed the need for initiatives supporting all different cultures and traditions. In the foreword, UNESCO's ex-general secretary Frederico Mayor states it clearly: "Save the world cultures!"Recommended for everybody interested and engaged in world cultural affairs.
