You are required to read the book entitled The Return of Depression Economics and The Crisis of 2008 by Paul Krugman (Author) outside of class and write a five-page book report on that book..

Start with a one paragraph introduction. This should contain the title of the book, the author, and a broad summary or introduction to the book. Following the introduction, you can start to talk about specific chapters or subjects contained in the book.

The goal of the report is to show that you read the book and understand the major issues discussed in the book. Obviously, you cannot talk about everything the author talks about in a few pages. Therefore, you need to decide what are the most important ideas or concepts in the book and focus on those. This section should be the most substantial portion of the report.

Following the description of the details of the book, tell me whether you liked the book or not, and why you liked or did not like the book. Perhaps the author said something you agree/disagree with and you can explain in this section why you agree/disagree with them. Another possible format would be to intersperse our own comments and opinions as you discuss a particular point from the book.
