The course seeks to develop new understandings of the problems and realities of contemporary America. It examines phases of America at work and at leisure, the nation's self-conceived role in the international scene, and the social institutions which have directed and shaped American character. The community leader's source book contains resources related to each topic suitable for discussions, books to review, and an annotated film list.

The newspaper packet, divided into four units corresponding with the student reader and the study guide, includes 18 1,400-word articles with appropriate illustrations and biographies.
