Description

At its essence, The World This Year 2015 is a quick overview for the modern global citizen who is buffeted by far too many demands for their time and attention. Emails, social media and demands at school or work leave less time for reading books or perusing magazines than in days of yore. This new era demands a new response and this yearbook is one way to take stock of an eventful year.

The World This Year 2015 is a compilation of 52 articles by Atul Singh, our founder, CEO and editor-in-chief. These articles review the week past and provide an invaluable snapshot of the year. This yearbook is a great way to make sense of the world in 2015.

This is an e-book that can be read on smartphone, tablet and desktop in PDF format.
