Series
review: Both Sides of the Story
"Each
title successfully presents both sides of a contemporary issue. ... The texts are
straightforward, easy to understand, and have an appealing format. Chapters
progress logically with helpful headings and subheadings. The numerous text
boxes, captioned color photos, and reproductions add additional
information."-Susan

Book
review: Animal Rights
"In
Animal Rights information about whether or not animals have the ability to
suffer pain, issues of morality, and other concepts are presented, providing a
foundation for readers to ponder the use of animals in product testing, whether
we should eat meat or use animal products, and other concerns. Euthanasia
examines what constitutes a good or bad death, medical intervention, living
wills, and legal concerns about assisted suicide."
