Every day on average, 48 children and teens in America are shot in murders, assaults, suicides and suicide attempts, unintentional shootings, and police interventions. This anthology contains a diverse collection of essays about guns and gun violence. Taken together, they offer a wide array of views on the issues surrounding the topic. Disparate viewpoints of complex issues are encapsulated in each chapter with the use of a question-and-response format.

Important facts, perfect for report writing, are dispersed throughout in eye-catching boxed insets.
