You will need to read Connected closely, examining its assumptions, assessing its reasons and evidence, and weighing its conclusions. Then, you will write a critical analysis essay where you: Summarize the chapters, state the author’s argument, examine and discuss the type of evidence the author uses, state whether the argument in the novel is clear and whether the author is convincing, based on the details the author includes, not on whether or not you agree with what the author says, discuss the author’s bias, and identify fallacies (flaws) in the author’s argument.
Write a critical analysis essay examining the following:
1. Summary of the book. Connected: The Surprising Power of Our Social Networks and How They Shape Our Lives
2. What is the author’s argument (apparent purpose for writing the novel?)
What is the point of writing this novel?
3.Identify the type of evidence used in the novel utilizing Aristotle’s methods of persuasion. Examine why this evidence is used.
4. Clarity of the argument and if the argument is convincing
5.What is the author’s bias?
6.What is faulty about the argument? Identify 3 fallacies found in the novel or that the author uses.
