The Tiananmen Square Massacre (At Issue in History)

Review
School Library Journal : "Because of the even-handed presentation, the title makes a strong and lasting impression. The writings are well chosen. A thoughtful and well-delineated addition."
-- School Library Journal (April 2003)
School Library Journal : "This book will give students an understanding of a difficult time in American history."
-- School Library Journal (September 2002)
School Library Journal : "This collection of primary-source material presents a well-balanced treatise on who knew what, and when, and who was responsible. This title deals with a debate that is seldom addressed."
-- School Library Journal (July 2002)
Booklist : "As with books in the long-running Opposing Viewpoints series, the excerpts here clearly express opposing opinions on an issue...The effect of the entire volume is to create an informative, many-sided representation."
-- Booklist (May 2002)
