Blog #10 Annotated Bibliography

Hi Guys!
Tonight's homework is to post an annotated bibliography on the novel. You must follow MLA format. Please see the sample below and see my DP Resource center for further assistance.

1. Annotated bibliography
2. Write a brief explanation about why and when annotated bibliographies are typically used.

Stem Cell Research: An Annotated Bibliography

Holland, Suzanne. The Human Embryonic Stem Cell Debate : Science, Ethics, and Public
Policy. Boston: MIT Press, 2001.

This is the annotation of the above source. In this example, I am following MLA guidelines for the bibliographic information listed above. If I was really writing an annotation for this source, I would now be offering a brief summary of what this book says about stem cell research.
After a brief summary, it would be appropriate to assess this source and offer some criticisms of it. Does it seem like a reliable and current source? Why? Is the research biased or objective? Are the facts well documented? Who is the author? Is she qualified in this subject? Is this source scholarly, popular, some of both?
