G'Day Mates,
Exciting news! I sent an email to a professor in AUSTRALIA this afternoon and he already responded!! So I'm pretty pumped; scratch that- I'm very pumped.
I asked him to answer a few questions because an article he wrote possibley disproves my argument... not because he is the perfect compliment to my thesis statement. I am trying to understand my topic, autism, as fully and completely as possible. Direct quotes from the interview may not integrate easily, but a greater understanding will impact the entire paper. Hopefully I will recieve his responses soon.

I think it's awesome that you've chosen to interview someone with an opposite viewpoint. In one of the books I'm reading for my paper, called Backlash, the author, Susan Faludi, refutes opposite claims she found through her own research. It made her book a lot stronger because she addressed many viewpoints. I hope you are able to do the same with this interview (or just understand your topic better)!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nikita! Sounds like an interesting book, hope you are enjoying it :) As an update, I just got a long response for all 4 questions from the Australian professor! AHhH!!!
