This study guide is written for high school curriculum, grades 9 through 12. Its simple Question-and-answer format breaks down the barriers to understanding the texts for both student and teacher. Vocabulary development, research topics and frequent Questions for Further Thought, the hallmark of Fran Rutherford's Questions for the Thinker Series, are included throughout. A complete answer key is found in the companion volume Teacher's Guide. It is recommended that a book be purchased for each student. Not only will it facilitate writing answers to the questions, it will serve for years as a valuable resource for other high school and college classes.
