Book Review |Get Solution

Write a book review of John W. Dower’s War Without Mercy book (1,000-1,200 words). Your review must include a description of the organization and contents of the book, its thesis, and your critical evaluation of how successful Dower is in achieving his goals and in persuading you of the thesis. What are strengths and weaknesses of the book? In the review, you must demonstrate your familiarity of the contents. Support your analysis with evidence from the reading and give appropriate page references if you quote passages or cite ideas/information. Your review must have a creative/thoughtful title. It must have at least 1,000 words. Your review must avoid using collective terms such as “the Japanese” and “the Americans” unless you are quoting from the reading. Citations must follow the “notes and bibliography” format of The Chicago Manual of Style. Latest print versions of the Chicago Manual can be found in most WMU University Libraries reference collections (Z53.C57). Quick, short printable, and full online versions are available on the University Libraries website. (Go to www.wmich.edu/library/research then click on Writing Guides and Chicago Manual of Style.)
