Packaged in black and white, The study guide provides many discussions starters that focus on both sides of
the conflict in World War Two, the history, the people and the moral dilemmas.
It includes an imaginative and challenging activity that requires students to
present arguments from different points of view including the scientists who
developed-d the bomb, the political leaders from both sides, the soldiers from
both sides and the Japanese people. It also teaches students about how films
represent history and the production modes used. In the guide are cartoons and
an account of the Smithsonian Enola Gay display controversy making it a very
comprehensive resource for many curriculum areas.
