From the wealthy cities of the north to the parched olive groves of the south, Italians are rising to the challenge of European Union membership. And their lives are changing in other ways too. Agriculture and manufacturing were once Italy's main employers, but today over half of all Italians work in service industries such as tourism and information technology.
Environmental awareness is increasing, and both companies and individuals are taking responsibility for looking after Italy's natural resources. Meet the people of Italy, and learn about the diversity of their lives, from a student in Ravenna to a fisherman in Comacchio.
The 'Changing Face Of' series offers a first-hand insight into how countries are changing to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century. Each title is filled with information and statistics about key geographical themes. Specially commissioned interviews give you a real sense of how people view the past, present and future of their home country.
