As you write the summaries (at least 500 words each), explain the chapters in your own words rather than just quoting
from the text. Tell us the main ideas of each chapter, define and explain any new terms you come across, and tell us
what conclusions we can draw from the reading. The point of a summary is to give someone else the gist of a longer
work in simpler terms. Imagine you are summarizing these chapters for peers who have never read the book.
What should they know?
