Philosophy and Management paper Phyll
PAPER #1 INSTRUCTIONS – Summer 2016
The basic objective of this paper is a summary of the “Thinking Critically” sections of Chapter 1 in the
textbook (Philosophy: A Text With Readings, 12 th Ed). These sections were in your assigned reading for
chapter 1, so you should be familiar with them. They are located on pages 8, 10, 12, 15, 24, and 31. You
do not need to include the “critical thinking” vignettes in the margins of the chapter.
Your assignment is to re-read these sections carefully, then write a detailed synopsis of all of these
sections as a whole. I’d rather you consider these sections as parts of one whole, rather than writing a
summary of each separate section, but do whatever you think is best (as long as you do all the sections).
Format Details:
1. Typed in MS Word or Rich Text Format only 2. 1-inch margins 3. 12-point font 4. Double-spaced lines 5. Indent first line of each paragraph, but no extra spacing between paragraphs 6. 600 words to 800 words (I will take off points for more or less) 7. Do not use an excessive amount of quotations, or excessively long quotations in your paper 8. No need to title the paper, just put your name at the end of it.
Provide references in your paper if you have quotations or specific ideas (end notes or page references)
from the book, and a short bibliography (MLA or APA). Failure to provide references for any ideas or
quotations directly from outside sources (anything but yourself) is plagiarism.
I want you to concentrate on the material in the chapter, and your paper should be about the material
in the book. To avoid any misinformation or bad interpretations this information, do not use other
resources.
