The numerous and rapid developments in elementary social studies (described in detail in Chapter 3) since the Second World War justify this revision, and the generous reception of the first edition enabled the publishers to authorize this second edition. The changes are numerous and extensive, amounting to about 45% of the total composition of the volume. The major changes deserve identification.
