The paper must include a section-by-section summary of the key ideas and themes in the book followed by a critique of each section. There must be a total of 10 headings. For example: Section One Summary, Section One Critique, Section Two Summary, Section Two Critique, etc.
There must be 5 external references for the paper. The Penner and Penner book must be listed on the reference page, but it is not included as an external reference. The Bible is an acceptable reference, but it does not have to be cited on the reference page. Acceptable references for the paper are published books and scholarly journal articles; Wikipedia and random internet websites are not acceptable references. The critique sections are a good place to integrate your external references. If you have questions regarding professional or scholarly references, please feel free to email me.
The paper must be written in a formal and academic tone. Your summary sections must be written in third-person format. Your critique sections may be written in firs- person format as this is where you will personally interact with the content of the book
