NATS 1870 Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Betting In Poker, Thesis Statement, Mit Press
Document Summary
Your annotated bibliography is basically a listing of books, articles, etc. with short summaries of their contents. There is no fixed limit or maximum for the number of books, nor is there a fixed limit or maximum for the length of the summaries. Take the topic you were assigned and craft an argumentative thesis statement out of it. It does not have to be detailed or final at this point; it only needs to point you in the right direction. Keep in mind that it will probably change as you do research, and you may discover that your conclusion was incorrect. If you do discover that your thesis just won"t work, consider changing it rather than discarding it. The number of books and articles you need varies depending on your thesis, broad theses require more sources, and narrow theses require fewer. Once you have decided on a thesis, make a list of several topics related to that thesis.
