For this assignment, please write a review of John Thornton’s Africa and Africans. Be sure to read and follow the expectations described below, and in the syllabus.
Review Articles should contain the following elements:
An introduction with a thesis statement
References to specific arguments made in the book
Thoughtful criticisms of the text
Reflections upon the broad impact of the book.
The thesis statements of your reviews should explain to the reader the REVIEWER’S main idea. Since these are reviews, the thesis statement should address the following questions:
What do you think about this book?
Would you recommend this book to others?
The best thesis statements will not only explain whether or not this book is recommended but will also show the reader why the review does or does not recommend this book. These reviews should also look at and critique specific points made in the book, but these reviews should not get bogged down in the particulars.
In other words, I would like to see these reviews interrogate specific points made by the book, but I also want these reviews to use those specific points in order to explain whether the book is successful or not in proving its main claim. What piece of evidence was particularly important in proving the central thesis of this book? If you are writing a negative review, you might consider what pieces of evidence fail to prove the major claim of the book.
All reviews should present some shortcoming of the text. No book is perfect; even positive reviews reflect upon what could have been done better.
