Remember, this is not a book summary or book report. It is like having an engaging conversation with the author. See the reaction outline that was uploaded and the table of contents. ASSIGNMENT: Write a 2 page reaction for each chapter including the introduction through chapter 13. I do not have the book, but it may be at the library or available as an ebook. I managed to get a copy of the index of the book. Also, use six other sources to support the position of the paper. The paper must be in APA 6th edition format: Headers, runners, please do not use I, me, or my or other related terms. Proper reference citations are needed. Direct quotes must have the proper citation with page number(s), indirect quotes or paraphased information need proper citations, reference the APA guide for further instruction. Also, please do not use slang or improper English. Read through all instructions carefully. A good resource for the format is Owl Purdue https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/
Other attachment to assist with the structure of the paper will be attached and also uploaded.
(50%) The writer does not demonstrate cursory understanding of subject matter, and the purpose of the paper is not stated. The objective, therefore, is not addressed and supporting materials are not correctly referenced.
FEWER THAN 20 POINTS The writer demonstrates limited understanding of the subject matter in that theories are not well connected to a practical experience or appropriate examples, though the attempt to research the topic is evident, and materials are correctly referenced.

ORGANIZATION
(20%) Paragraphs do not focus around a central point, and concepts are disjointedly introduced or poorly defended (i.e., stream of consciousness).
FEWER THAN 8 POINTS Topics/content could be organized in a more logical manner. Transitions from one idea to the next are often disconnected and uneven.
8 to 16 POINTS The writer focuses on ideas and concepts within paragraphs, and sentences are well-connected and meaningful. Each topic logically follows the objective.
