505			_a"What are the four characteristics a leader needs to succeed in business? What are the benefits of being a sports fan? Why is a disease that once afflicted mostly the wealthy now a global epidemic? Discover the answers to these questions and more in Contemporary Topics 2. Now in a fourth edition, this series expands on its highly respected approach to developing academic listening and study skills. Organized around realistic college lectures, the text guides learners through carefully sequenced activities in skills such as note-taking, focusing attention, intensive listening, and vocabulary building. It also helps students prepare for public speaking, evaluate their interests, and explore possible career paths" (Book Cover).
