[Ruth · Rating 3 out of 5]

This series of book was written to give young people the opportunity to read differing point of view on the same subject. The idea being that we need to develop critical thinking skills, learn to tell the difference between emotion and fact, and learn to test the credibility of authors. Can opinion change due to rhetoric alone?
