Series Review: Development or Destruction?
"Well-known nonfiction authors Louise and Richard Spilsbury have written a very useful series for middle-level students who are researching debate topics. Each book highlights the development facts for the topic and the destruction factors involved. For students wanting more information on pros and cons, these books are an excellent resource. The books have many graphs, charts, and photos to accompany the text. Pages are organized for maximum retention of information; facts are presented in boxes, bubbles, and other shapes that catch the reader's attention. There are ideas for forming a debate club where students can play different roles, pleading their case to a particular organization."

Series Review: Development or Destruction?
"Debaters and report writers will find plenty of information and perhaps a cause to pursue further at the same time."
