Book Report/Vaccine discussion the book is The Panic Virus: The True Story of the Vaccine-Autism Controversy. By Michael Specter

Description

Instructions:

Write a report on the book you have chosen as the foundation source for your research paper. The book, like the research paper, must relate in some way to one of the 18 assigned readings from the ENG 102 Course Selection.

Reminder: The book should come from the List of Approved Books, or meet your instructor’s approval.

After reading the relevant chapters/sections of the book, write a 3-page report discussing the main points, and provide specific affirmation of those points, from three of the book’s chapters that you think relate well as a foundation resource for your planned research paper.

The book should relate directly to your research-paper topic. In fact, with a little revision, you should be able to re-use the book report as part of the research paper.

You may design your own introduction and conclusion to the book report or use the documented reports in M1, M2, and M3 as a suggested structure.

TIP: Try formulating a conclusion to the report as an appeal to logos, ethos or pathos to give yourself a step up on the research paper. After your conclusion, insert a page break and include a Works Cited “list” with one entry: a correctly formatted citation for the book

Use the M6 Template BR to help you format your paper, and M6 Stubbs BR as an example of how a book report could read.

After your conclusion, insert a page break and include a Works Cited “list” with one entry: a correctly formatted citation for the book.

Please save your assignment as a Word document (.doc) and upload it by clicking on the Browse My Computer button. Name the file as LastnameBR, where “Lastname” is your last name (i.e. JohnsonBR.doc).

Your submission will be checked for plagiarism using the SafeAssign feature within Blackboard.

This assignment is worth 100 points and will be evaluated using the ENG 102 Book Report Rubric, which is available when you open the assignment.
