A book review evaluates and offers a brief description of a book's key points and often provides a short appraisal of the strengths and weaknesses of the book. A book review must include an overview of the content and an evaluation of the book's relevance. However, more than a summary of contents should be provided; the review should address the main ideas, approaches, and interpretations of the author. A good review will provoke reflection on the part of the reader. The book review includes introduction, body, and conclusion. • Introduction: Includes an overview of the book’s content and the reader’s opinion about the book. • Body: The following phrases may be helpful in suggesting a subset of points to address in the body of the review: o Purpose of the book? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the book? o Opinion of why this is professionally relevant ? o If intended for a wider audience, whom may that include? o Is it interesting to the readership of a professional education course? How? o How this book differs from previously read books on the same topic? o Is the content accurate? Clear? Well-organized? Up-to-date? Authoritative? o Adequately tied to other relevant doctrine or literature? o Is it valuable as a resource for my career-level peers? Of use in my unit? How? o Are the conclusions or summary appropriate, and supported by the content? • Conclusion: The conclusion will clearly sum up the book review and discuss your recommendation on the use of the book. Why people should or should not read the book? Include in-text citations for any quotes, or paraphrasing that you include from the book.
