Document Summary
Catch up on the readings: the test: if you"re in ottawa, do the test at 6pm on october 22, in a different room. They figure out the introduction at the end to state their argument, and the conclusion is not much different: middle: test the author as to whether he did what he set out to do. Look at the evidence, the way the argument was structured. Did they use other types of evidence: get over the idea that you can"t criticize a professor"s book. Sometimes people make mistakes: you can find other reviews of the book, can compare it to the rest of the literature to show whether it added something significant. It could place your book in context: could take up 1/3 of essay (1000 words) to describe the book author sets out to argue this, he does it through this.
