Have you experienced writing a book review? Book review gives vital
information about the book. It is a descriptive and critical account of a book. It provides
a summary of the content and assesses the value of it to potential readers. Book
review is different from book report. Book report is an objective summary of the main
ideas and arguments the book presents. It helps potential readers determine if the
book will be of any use or interest to them.
The following are steps in Writing a Book Review:

1. Analyze and evaluate the book critically.
2. Compare its content to similar texts and genres appropriately
3. Be consistent with your stance and stick with it throughout your review.
4. Review the book as a whole to see the big picture of it, rather than resorting to
its summary only.
5. Provide viable recommendations to potential readers whether the book is worth
reading or not.
Dos in Writing a Book Review:

1. Past Tense – is used in writing a review about a book you have already read.
2. Emotive Language – is employed showing your passionate stance or opinion
about the book. Your audience will thank you for it.
3. Active and Passive Voices - are used in recounting the content of a book.
Elements of Book Review

1. Title
Often, the title of the book review will correspond to the title of the text itself.
However, some questions should be raised to validate on the relevance of the
title:
a. How does it fit into the purpose of the work as a whole?
b. Does it convey a message, or reveal larger themes explored within the
work?
2. Author
Discussing who the author is and what he/she had written before, especially if
it relates to the current work being reviewed, is worth doing. Such discussion
includes the author’s style and what he/she is best known for and the awards
the author received.
2

lOMoARcPSD|39089648
3. Genre
Identify the genre that the book belongs to, such as: fiction, nonfiction, poetry,
romance, science-fiction or history.
4. Book Jacket/Cover
Comment on the artwork contained by the book’s cover which may contain
interesting details related to the text that contributes to, or detracts from the
work as a whole.
5. Structure or Format
Examine how the book is organized. Is it written in sections or chapters? Does
it contain a table of contents, index, glossary, etc.? Does it contain graphics
and other figures? Find other interesting aspects of the book.

Activity 2. Examine how the following book review is written based on the
standards and guidelines you learned from the lesson. Write your

Sample of Book Review:
My Thoughts About Lullabies by Lang Leav (Book Review #85)

Imagine reading a book that will literally lull you to sleep. This book is one of those. I
am saying it in a god way though.
Since it’s love month, I decided to delve into another Lang Leav book. Lullabies is
Lang Leav’s second poetry book, with Love and Misadventure being the first one. I
read, enjoyed and reviewed that book and made it to my list of the best books I enjoyed
last year. I am not a fan of poems but Lang Leav’s works connected to me in a way
that I find distinct. I didn’t find it hard to immerse and connect myself to her works
which is my primary concern with other poem collections.
Lullabies is a comforting read that provokes emotions. Using a familiar tone and style
that he used in her first book, her new one offers a more in-depth discussion of the
universal language that is spoken by the world, that is love. One of the reasons why I
believe, I didn’t find it hard to connect to her books is because of its use of language
and writing style that even those who isn’t into poetry can enjoy. She writes poems
concisely using simple but elaborate language that flows in it’s own rhythm.
The book is thicker than the first one and features illustrations by Leav herself. The
book has three parts: <Duet,= <Interlude= and <Finale= with illustrations accompanying
each. The book has a wide array of romantic tales that a variety of people can definitely

lOMoARcPSD|39089648
connect to. The poems are open to interpretations depending on what the readers are
currently feeling. It has poems about desires, yearnings, losses of people about love.
From love’s beginning, to blossoming, the climax, the denouement and the aftermath,
the book provokes emotion. The author works wonder with words and she knows how
to put her feelings into it. It is very imminent how she writes from the heart and captures
different emotions very well. It wont’s be a surprise if you find yourself reading a poem
that you feel was written for you.
<Lullabies= is good, but I still consider <Love & Misadventures= as better. They follow
the same style and structure and both are uniquely appealing but I find the latter as
more cohesive in structure that the former but nonetheless that opinion does not
diminish the fact that this book is a gem. It offers a unique story if read in order but can
also be explored by reading random bits of it. Nostalgic at times, it is relatable to those
who have fallen in love and brokenhearted.
There are some poems in each collection that veers away from the traditional rules to
tell her tales showing how the author is taking the risk which I love from the author. It
is also noticeable how this book has more prose weaved into it which could mean that
the author is giving the readers a peak to her next works, a novel probably. I’ll definitely
look forward for the author’s next book.

What Is It
Literature review is an integrated analysis and synthesis of scholarly articles

related to the topics or issues included in your paper. It critically describes,
summarizes, and evaluates updated information from learning sources. The following
figure shows the kinds of learning sources.
Before writing a literature review, it is very significant to pick a topic that you
find compelling and is relevant to the course. The topic should be relatively narrow,
not broad, so that it does not overwhelm the writer. It is also imperative to find relevant
literature, use keywords or phrases closely associated with the topic. Search with one
or two phrases enclosed by quotation marks (<Edsa Revolution=, <Edsa Revolution
economic impact=, <Edsa Revolution economy=).
Moreover, evaluating Literature is deemed essential in determining which ones

seem to make the most important contributions to the scholarship on the topic. Hence,
such move is very helpful in organizing the material later when composing the review.
The next figure will help you understand on how to evaluate the literature.

lOMoARcPSD|39089648
Organizing a Literature Review
Literature review is organized into three parts:
1. Introduction defines and identifies the topic by establishing the reason/s for the
literature review. It explains the criteria used in analyzing and comparing articles
and points to general trends in what has been published about the topic
2. Body. This part groups articles into thematic clusters, or subtopics and proceeds
in a logical order from cluster to cluster. Moreover, it emphasizes the main findings
or arguments of the articles in the student’s own words and keeps quotations from
sources to an absolute minimum.
3. End. Summarizes the major themes that emerged in the review and identifies
areas of controversy in the literature. It pinpoints strengths and weaknesses among
the articles and provides some insight into the relationship between that topic and
the larger field of study or discipline.
Structure of a Literature Review
Chronological Grouping
---means to group the material according to when it was published or the time period
the material addressed a certain issue.
Thematic Grouping
---means sections might be organized around particular subthemes within the essay’s
topic

Activity 3. Examine how the Literature Review is written based on the

standards and guidelines you learned from the lesson. Write your
answer below.
The study of democracy and democratization has dominated the field of

comparative politics. Scholars have varied in their approach on how to define and
measure democracy; however, the most recognized definition of democracy belongs
to Schumpeter (1976) which states that democracy <is that institutional arrangement
for arriving at political decisions in which individual’s acquire the power to decide by
means of a competitive struggle for the people’s vote.= Dahl’s (1971) notion of
democracy poses an ideal form of the government, unachievable by today’s
standards. In sun defining democracy, although important, presents a variety of
challenges.
Various measures of democracy have been posited by scholars Przeworski,

Alverez, Cheibud, and Limongi (2000) argue that democracy is a dichotomous
variable, existing only if (1) a chief executive is elected; (2) the legislative is elected;
(3) there is more than one political party; and (4) a change in power has occurred.
Other scholars, however, asserts that universal and equal suffrage are essential in the
conceptualization of democracy (Rueschemeyer, Stephens, and Stephens 1992). This
dichotomous notion of democracy, although useful in distinguishing countries from
authoritarian regimes, ignores the transitionary nature of democratic governance
(Lipset 2006). Marshall and Jagger’s (2003) Polity IV measure consider the
progressive nature of democracy, while other scholars utilize a measure od
democratic political rights (Freedom House 2005). The choice of measure, however,
strictly depends on the questions being asked.

Position Paper Defined
A position paper describes a stand or position on a particular issue, and the

viable reasons for taking that position. It is based on facts that offer a concrete basis
for one’s arguments crafted to appeal a specific audience.
A position paper enables authors to exchange views without requiring them to

follow research format. Position papers are usually supported by evidences given in
discussion about the topic. A common type often required in schools is the persuasive
position paper.
Planning a Position Paper

• Choose a side and stand on the issue.
• Give a good introduction by including brief background of an issue.
• Enumerate arguments by giving at least three-string comprehensible
arguments.
• Support each argument with proof of evidences.
• Consider your audience in crafting your argument. Make sure your arguments
will appeal to the kind of people who will read your position paper.
• Identify at least two explicit and implicit counter-arguments to your position.
Knowing the <other side= position will help you evaluate your own argument.
• State your conclusion by restating and summarizing your position and
arguments on the issue at hand.

dates. It starts with the complete work experiences, followed by the educational
background. It is best used if you are applying for a job related to your previous

highlight both your skills and traits and provide a chronological listing of your work
experiences.
