Request for Question Clarification by j_philipp-ga on 06 Feb 2003 00:14 PST

Hello Tomcomedia,

Young adults around the world have so many things they want to learn
about. Many want to learn about life itself, relationships, job, how
society works and how they can improve themselves. They also want to
learn about politics, culture, movies, music, books, food, drinks.
They might want to see different countries. Or learn about science,
computers, new technologies. Their interests vary as much as human
character itself varies.

Could you explain what kind of answer you expect and why?

The price would then also indicate how broad a scope the answer should
be. You can additionally limit the scope of an answer by e.g.
restricting the question to one country.

Hello,

This is for a line of how-to books that target that market, in the
USA. I don't need a full study on everything they're interested in,
just a few ideas with some articles or whatever to back it up would be
fine.

Thanks,
Tom
