The original answer to the article review questions should be around 500 words total. Please be coherent and avoid repetition. I’ve provided a comment to reply to and it should be around 200 words. The comment should discuss the answers, not the authors. They should add something to the discussion and/ or provide constructive criticism. the reply to the comment should have an argument to back up the agreement.
I have upload the chapter(p.85-127) that goes along with the article review and along with the comment to reply to.
