Book Reviews of Global Issues: Taking Sides - Clashing Views on Global Issues (Taking Sides)
Book Review: Biased...should not be used for classes
Summary: 1 Stars
Do not recommend for students...I had to buy it for a college level class. Relies heavily on articles by think tank, non-experts on the issues...with obvious political biases. Do your own research and challenge the facts.
