KSL staff members were discussion leaders in group sessions on Friday 22nd, hosting new students & discussing this year's common reading book. If you've read it & would like to know what some of the reviews said, use a few Case library databases.
Other databases help you get ahead quickly so you can better understand what the book is about: try Literary Reference Center for a first look at brief articles & overviews, plot summaries and more.
Better yet, use Academic Search Complete and
- check "Document Type" for Book Review
- then Sort by Relevance & set the results view to "Detailed"
- browse for the reviews you'd like to read.
- added bonus: Click on the left side options for "Academic Journals" to reduce the 16 results to 6 that are more scholarly, like Bioscience or Journal of the History of Biology!
KSL's Karen Thornton, Mark Eddy, Brian Gray, & Angela Sloan enjoyed student groups:
You still have time to read the book—get a copy on the OhioLINK Catalog and have it delivered to a library near you! Also explore The Complete Works of Darwin Online, from the University of Cambridge, UK.
Databases are licensed for Case faculty, students, & staff and require an activated VPN network authentication.
