They inspire readers to think critically and objectively about the deeds of world leaders.

Focus boxes provide important cultural and historical background material, while sidebars incorporate many primary source quotations. Readers are encouraged to use the facts and statistics provided to "judge for themselves" the success or failure of some of the deeds that have shaped our world.
