your final typed double-spaced footnoted report must include:
(a) full bibliographic citation of the book being reviewed
(b) background of the author(s)
(c) major themes of the book
(d) the biases of the book
(e) author(s) conclusions
(f) an analysis of at least two scholarly book reviews on the book (including where you agree and disagree with the reviewers)
(g) your personal impressions of the book
NOTE: I suggest that the easiest way to format your project is simply follow this outline section by section.
Be sure that you include a bibliography of the sources of your book reviews and that you footnote all material which is directly quoted and ideas which you have paraphrased. Failure to do so is taking the ideas of others and passing them off as your own. This is plagiarism and will result in an automatic grade of "F" for your book project. Any citation system is acceptable (including your footnotes as an End Note). Your project must be typed and should be approximately 4-5 pages in length but that is merely a suggested target
