The<br \/>\nreview should then contain a brief summary of the contents of the book (not<br \/>\nmore than 30% of the total assignment), followed by a more extensive critique<br \/>\nof the book\u2019s strengths and weaknesses (50%-60% of the assignment). You should<br \/>\nlook for two (2) significant strengths and two (2) significant weaknesses to<br \/>\nthe book. These strengths and weaknesses must be based on the simple question,<br \/>\n\u201cdoes the author adequately support and defend his thesis?\u201d What parts of his<br \/>\nargument build his thesis and support it? What are weaknesses that pose a<br \/>\nproblem for his thesis? Avoid the use of the first person (I, we, us, etc.) in<br \/>\nyour review. This is generally not acceptable in academic writing. Also avoid<br \/>\nthe use of contractions (don\u2019t, isn\u2019t, it\u2019s) and archaic and British spellings<br \/>\n(amongst, regards, towards). The paper should end with a conclusion that summarizes<br \/>\nthe findings of the critique and establishes the usefulness of the book for its<br \/>\nparticular academic setting.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You are to use Christianity&#8217;s Dangerous Idea: The Protestant Revolution\u2014A History from the Sixteenth Century to the Twenty-First as your text for the book critique assignment.
