This volume looks at questions related to the issue of gun control from a variety of angles, such as the role the Second Amendment plays in the debate, the influence of the NRA, and how gun control became a partisan issue. Viewpoints also consider the potential economic implications of increased gun control and what methods of gun control--if any--would be most effective. Expert viewpoints give readers the opportunity to better understand this challenging and often emotional issue.
