From Booklist
Following a similar format shared by the books in the publishers' ongoing Opposing Viewpoints series, this title in the new Issues That Concern You series features a selection of article excerpts, introduced by a paragraph of commentary, that show many sides of an issue. Here, the articles, culled from periodicals as disparate as the FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin, theWall Street Journal, and Traffic Safety Facts, debate issues surrounding drunk driving, such as setting a legal drinking age and determining blood-alcohol levels, effectively addressing the problems as well as the moral and legal questions surrounding the apprehension and punishment of drunk drivers. Clearly presented and organized and illustrated with photos and charts, this useful title should be a staple in YA collections. Extensive appendixes include fact lists, contact organizations, and a bibliography. Gillian Engberg
