		<description>Are there any current visual fact books about the United States? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I have &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/067179695X/metafilter-20/ref=nosim/&quot;&gt;this book&lt;/a&gt; which features many topics concerning the US shown in colorful maps and charts, much like the cover. Some of the topics include immigration, abortion, AIDS, gay rights, capital punishment, taxes, religion, the media, poverty, farming, trade routes, etc. It&apos;s very interesting and fun to read, but it&apos;s from 1994 and outdated. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
I&apos;ve looked online and the publisher has a more current one about the world out, but not the US. It looks like they are publishing &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.myriadeditions.com/?section=books&amp;category=atlas&amp;id=us-empire&quot;&gt;one about the US&lt;/a&gt; but it seems it&apos;s more about how the US affects the world and not on issue of the US itself.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Are there any current books out there like this one?</description>

		<description>Oh yeah, I know I can probably find most of the data online, since the book cites every fact, but I rather see if the work is done already in book form.</description>

		<description>How about &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.understandingusa.com/&quot;&gt;Understanding USA?&lt;/a&gt; (The data in it is a few years old now though).</description>
