Students will write and submit an original book review (1500-2000) words) of Peter Gleick (2023), The Three Ages of Water. NY: Public Affairs.
Any references to outside sources (though none are required!) must be properly cited using an acceptable reference notation style (such as Chicago or APA). Students are free to choose any such style – but must stick to it, and state on the title page which style has been chosen, along with the word count.
The review must begin with an introductory paragraph, laying out your initial, overall assessment of the book. The point of a review is not just to offer your opinion of the book, but to persuade the reader whether or not they should purchase and read it for themselves. Whatever you think about the book, outline your reasons at the start – this is the thesis of your argument, which is developed and supported in the body of the review.
The second paragraph (no more than 150 words) must provide a summary of the contents of the book and the argument that the author make. This part is essential – your own reader is not likely to accept your opinion unless you can demonstrate, objectively, that you understand the argument the author tries to make.
For the rest of your review, offer a more detailed analysis and reflection on what the author sets out in Part 3 as “the third Age of Water.” What fundamental, underlying ethical issues are being discussed/handled here? Are you convinced? Why or why not?
Whatever you write in this section, make sure your opinions are supported by references to the text, and by good reasoning (your own!).
