William Badke brings up interesting point of views such as making the reader
realize that research isn’t all about gathering a huge mass of information but also to
“strategize” how these information that the researcher have gathered will be utilized in a way that is more beneficial to him/her in terms of organization and structure.
Chapter 1 talks about how the researcher is presented various types of angles to tackle his/her own research project and that getting started with these fundamentals are required whereas Chapter 8 discusses how the researcher can take the huge amount of information that he/she has gathered and turn it into a more direct knowledge through different methods such as quoting, summarizing, and/or paraphrasing.
Overall I agree that there are a lot of different factors as well as approaches to gathering various kinds of information and Chapter 1 and 8 are about the basics of gathering resource and turning it into your very own respectable work.
