This book is a response to the introduction of Civic Education to Schools in Nigeria and the need for a comprehensive text on the subject. Themes in Civic Education(Book one) is a well-researched text that is in accordance with the Nigerian government approved syllabus for Senior Secondary Schools. Nonetheless, it is robustly written to give the reader an all-encompassing understanding of the topics treated. The approach adopted will also be appealing even to students in tertiary institutions across Nigeria.It is basically a study text. Each chapter begins with a list of topics and sub-topics to be expected in the body of the work. There is also a study outcome session that is meant help the student to fix in mind the objective of each chapter. The realization that no subject can be adequately understood unless a person understands the vocabulary used has led to the inclusion of ''terms to know'' session at the beginning of each session. The essence is to help the reader to be thoroughly familiar with the vocabulary of each chapter. It would do a lot of good for the student to note such words. Another advantage of the terms to know session, is that it helps to improve the student's general vocabulary.Another feature of this text is that each chapter ends with a summary and review questions that are meant to test the student understanding of each chapter. It is my hope that all students and Teachers of Secondary Schools across Nigeria will find this text a very useful study and resource material. Students in tertiary institutions who take elective courses that deals with the themes covered in this book, will also find it very enlighteningFind below the topics covered in this volume: CHAPTER ONEINTRODUCTION TO CIVIC EDUCATION Meaning and Need for Civic Education Objectives/reasons for Civic Education in schools Importance of Civic EducationCHAPTER TWOVALUES AND COMMUNITY SERVICE Definition of Values and Sources Types of values/Basic Human values: justice, selflessness, Honesty, Integrity, faithfulness, self-control Acceptable societal values/Expectation Differences in individual values and the importance of values Opportunity to defend oneself.
