(3) YA Social Issues in Literature series. These books feature essays reprinted from a variety of sources. Each volume is arranged in three sections, with writings exploring the author's biography, a textual issue, and views on that issue. Drawing from different disciplines and points of view, the essays create a critical conversation rather than providing definitive answers, making decent starting points for student research.
