520			_a"The years since the first edition of this text (2014) have seen many changes, and these have often bought increased tension and uncertainty. This tension augments the fact that many young adults were struggling with anxiety and depression in the U.S.A. and other cultures even before recent times. In the last years, we have seen protests across many cultures for racial justice, women's rights, LGBTQ rights, the right to public expression. Some countries are accused of suppressing Muslim, Kurdish, or other minority groups, seeking to force them to conform to dominant cultures. We have seen a growing frequency of climate-related changes, such as increased storms in some areas, rising sea levels, shrinking ice caps, and resulting changes in food supplies. The number of refugees from local strife and from climate-related issues has risen drastically. At the time of this writing, there is open conflict in Ukraine, Ethiopia, and Yemen, but also refugees fleeing Syria, Venezuela, and other countries. And then there was that whole COVID-19 virus. Surrounding all of these, many of our countries are seeing a rise in political polarization, which hints of political instability."-- _cProvided by publisher.
