Critical Summary/Review

Please kindly write a one page, single-spaced, critical summary/review for each set of the below 16 readings. Each summary must end with two discusion questions. So there should be 16 response papers in all, each one page, single-spaced, Times News Roman Font 12.

For the sources that say “(online)” next to them in the list below, it means there is a PDF scanned copy of the source. I have attached all the PDFs below.

For the ones without, it means I don’t have the scanned copy of the source. I do have some notes of some of these unscanned sources in the word document attached called “Summary Notes of Select Sources.” However do NOT use these sentences in the summary notes as tthe notes were created by Chat GPT and will be easily picked up by an AI detector. So you must write all the sentences originally yourself. The notes are just there to brief you. If there are no summary notes there either, please kindly leverage the internet to try to find summaries of the source or the source itself. If necessary, you can buy a kindle/ebook copy of the source and I will reimburse you for the cost in the form of additional tips.
