Reviews / Votes
The Talking Points books are visually striking with many provocative photos. The text is mature and does not talk down to the reader. There is a global dimension to each volume, and examples are up-to-date: the book on animal rights has sections on BSE and cloning. -- TES 19990416 'Information is well presented and allowed to speak for itself, though discussion prompts are inserted at strategic places.' -- Books for Keeps 20021101More details
