Science News Flash provides a fair and balanced look at controversial science issues in the news, offering the background information necessary for readers to fully grasp the topics. In addition to presenting the basic science in an accessible format, the books place the issues in a social, political, and economic context by discussing a brief history of the issue, the current considerations, and the future implications or research directions. Full-color photographs and illustrations enliven the informative text, and a helpful glossary defines relevant terms. This set will help middle and high school readers develop critical-thinking skills.
