Opposing Viewpoints Series - Technology and Society (paperback edition)

From School Library Journal Grade 9 Up-This volume of articles and excerpts published between 1996 and 2001 looks at technology and how it affects everyday life and society. Some of the topics examined include government regulation of technology, fetal stem-cell research, and e-mail privacy. The for and against arguments are offered in intelligent and rational essays by respected people in their fields. The language is understandable but not simplistic, the pieces are clearly titled for easy identification, and a few cartoons and a chart break up the dense text. This unbiased collection is a welcome resource for researchers and debaters.
