SynopsisThe 1996-1997 edition of the Index to International Public Opinion continues to provide the most comprehensive information available for public opinion data throughout the world. Surveys from 70 countries are included, and 101 countries and regions are referenced in these studies. Data compiled by 207 research firms makes this the one essential source for public opinion research data. As with earlier volumes, all tables contain total sample results and many include breakdowns by various population subgroups such as gender, political party affiliation, age, and level of formal education. Poll questions deal with a broad mix of social, political, and economic issues of both contemporary and historical interest. Among the highlights are survey data on men and women in society conducted in 22 countries, survey material on sexual harassment at work conducted in Japan and the United States, and material on relations between Asian countries conducted in eight Asian nations. This volume and the overall series provide the most comprehensive source for public opinion data available. The volumes are of unusual importance for journalists, scholars, government officials, and business professionals., There are thousands of moth species in the northeast of North America, and while it might seem that they are all drab grays and browns, there is actually a startling variety. They come in a rainbow of colors, from brilliant oranges and pinks to soft greens and violets. There are moths with colorful leopard-like spots, and ones that look more like B-movie aliens; some that are as large as your hand, and others the size of a grain of rice. With helpful tips on how to attract and identify moths, range maps and season graphs showing when and where to find each species, and clear photographs that use the unique Peterson arrow system for easy identification, this guide provides everything an amateur or experienced moth-watcher needs.
