Reviewed by Laurn Wilhelm, University of WyomingAs with other titles in the Real Character/Real People Series, Profiles in Responsibility opens with a fast paced interesting introduction. A teenager launches the topic with vignettes of how responsibility impacts everyone for better or for worse. In an informal roundtable Dr. Hal Urban leads a group of high school students in a discussion of responsibility. Stan Lee, co-creator of Spiderman and Cindi Leive, editor in chief of Glamour magazine each discuss responsibility as it relates to their personal and professional lives. Presents personal, real-life examples of how individual choices can affect group and team efforts. A technically sound production recommended for public, junior and senior high school libraries.
