You will be required to read book for this class. You will prepare a critical response the book. I want you to be candid with your comments about the books. Your response should be about 1,200 to 1,500 words. In writing the response, keep in mind that the important point is not to demonstrate that you have done the reading, but that you have thought about the main arguments of the book. Do not just summarize the book. The idea is for you to develop your own response to the material and to organize and communicate your thoughts and ideas (whatever they are) into a coherent argument. The best responses will be clear, thoughtful, and reflective. They will demonstrate understanding of the issues that they deal with, but will not simply summarize the book. Instead, they will use the book as a basis for discussion or as evidence for a position or argument. Whatever the point you try to make, it will be well-reasoned and explained.

The Book name is: Behind the White Picket Fence
