Reviews
Gr 9 Up--Each of these books begins with a quote from the first amendment and then goes on to exemplify exchanges of ideas made possible by freedom of speech and of the press. Essays supporting opposite points of view are presented in pairs, and many are by well-known writers, from Susan Faludi and Dale Spencer to Phyllis Schafly and Robert Bly. Each one is prefaced by questions that encourage critical thinking; more questions appear in the appendixes. Sexual Values includes discussions of pornography, sexual education, behavior, and many issues concerning gays and lesbians, some of which are social rather than sexual. Male/Female Roles discusses the establishment of gender roles, how they have changed, and the future of relationships between the sexes. Wekesser's book begins with a historical perspective of the women's movement and a discussion of 19th-century feminism. Topics also include feminism's effects on women, society, and its future and goals. References to political events and popular culture are up to date. The volumes have detailed bibliographies and appendixes that list and describe organizations relevant to the material presented. These titles are not light reading, but will be invaluable for class discussions and reports.

Store description
GloryBe Books & Ephemera, LLC is an on-line out-of-print book and ephemera marketplace. Our goal is to offer accurately described items at reasonable prices. Libraries will be able to stretch their book budgets and supplement their inventory. Academicians, bibliographers, researchers, collectors, and avid readers will discover that they can obtain a valued book or pamphlet for less than an alternative version of the original item. After over forty years in the book business there remains no greater joy than to connect an excited customer with a book or pamphlet needed to further research, add to a collection, find a favorite book to share with a child or simply locate a copy of a book written or illustrated by a family member. GloryBe Books & Ephemera was founded by a bibliophile with nearly five decades of experience who has decided to offer his private eclectic stock for sale. Items acquired from scholars, academicians, publishers, import book distributors, private collectors and renowned booksellers will be catalogued and added on a weekly basis. We believe we will be sustained in this endeavor by your letter of appreciation that your item arrived in a timely manner, accurately described at a fair price. We look forward to hearing from you.…
