Everything's an Argument-Chapter 6

Chapter 6 of Everything's an Argument is not the most exciting of chapters but it does a good job of distinguishing between academic and non academic arguments and is relevant to what we are doing in class. The examples given in the first part of this chapter were very effective. I like how there were examples of academic and non academic argument all pertaining to the same topic: migraines. After the chapter distinguished between types of arguments it went on to talk about developing arguments. This section elaborated on how to formulate a topic and an argument as well as how to effectively incorporate the research we have gathered. Overall this chapter gives useful information about academic arguments and how to use research effectively.
