Excellent presentation of various major issues that affect the United States in the form of mini-debates. Each topic includes a summary explanation of the main issues involved in the case and then an expert presents a "pro" and another presents a "con" arguement. The issues were well chosen and the experts that wrote on each side of each issue were qualified and articulate. It's a great introduction to U.S. policy issues and current affairs. The publisher needs a good proofreader, however. The typos and grammatical problems became distracting.
