The Curious Researcher Chapter 3

Chapter three of the Curious Researcher talks about plagiarism. The author explains not only how easy it is to plagiarized but also how easy it is to get caught. The author suggest many techniques to give credit where credit is due. The one idea I liked best suggested from the author was paraphrasing. I feel overall paraphrasing will give you a better understanding of the material you are writing about because if requires to throughly read and comprehend the material. Although you paraphrase a paragraph or two, it is still required to cite the source and give the credit.
