5.0 out of 5 stars Opposing Viewpoints does it again!, November 21, 2002
This review is from: Abortion (Opposing Viewpoints) (Paperback)
I'm a high school student and I follow politics closely. I've found the Opposing Viewpoints series to be a reliable and unbiased source of discussion of current issues.

This particular book is divided into five chapters. Every chapter contains several pairs of opposing articles each regarding different aspects of each issue (i.e., "Abortion is Murder" vs. "Abortion is Not Murder" and "Fetal Tissue Research is Ethical" vs. "Fetal Tissue Research is Unethical"). How could any political junkie pass up a book like this?

The articles are engaging and informative; most are taken from recent editorial pages of magazines, newspapers, and books. Some are written by political/social heavyweights (e.g., Pope John Paul II, Sandra Day O'Connor), others by issue groups (e.g., American Life League, ACLU), and others by columnists and commentators. They are certainly NOT redundant or boring.

This book is essential for those with developing views on abortion as well as those with established views. As Opposing Viewpoints says, "Those who do not know their opponent's arguments do not completely understand their own."
