A brief historical overview of the Roman Empire is followed by a series of debates over what initiated the fall of that epoch. Religious differences, economic issues, and intermarriages are some of the causes argued in the well-articulated chapters, uninterestingly illustrated with occasional black-and-white reproductions. A chronology is included. Bib., ind. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
《书目》(Booklist)书评
Gr. 7^-12. This new Opposing Viewpoints Digests series is a shorter, more accessible, "lite" version of the excellent Opposing Viewpoints series. Instead of including original speeches, essays, and articles in full, Nardo quotes excerpts from those primary sources in his summaries of various sides of controversial issues. Each book begins with a historical introduction. Then he talks about the main topics, first as they were argued by various sides at the time, and then as modern historians see the outcome. The full Opposing Viewpoints books are richly detailed and immediate, but they are intimidating for some students; and these simpler overviews, with clear type, short chapters, occasional black-and-white photos, and brief quotes, will serve as an introduction to the ideas and also as a guide for students' own research. There are full source notes as well as annotated bibliographies, study questions, statistical data, and an appendix of primary sources. --Hazel Rochman
