Each volume opens with an introduction explaining the title issue. After presenting facts, current statistics, and research, the authors then delve deeper into issues such as the role of video games in violent or addictive behaviors; each book's final chapter explores possible ways to resolve or mitigate problems.

The major controversial issues of the day (police powers, illegal immigration, climate change, and more) seem to grow ever more complex. The Issues in Society series separates facts from opinion and provides badly needed context for understanding these hot-button topics. Sidebars expressing opposing views, fully documented quotes, and organizations to contact lists provide additional critical thinking tools for student researchers. Book jacket.
