Chapter 10 of Booth, et al. describes the kind of counterarguments a reader of your paper might make, and ways to identify and address such counterarguments. Subject your paper's argument (in its current state) to the questions listed in Sections 10.1-10.2 (p. 140-143). Note that some questions are numbered, while others are in the paragraph. Provide your answers for this MA. For some of the questions, your answer might be "this question does not apply;" if so, please note this accordingly. At the top of your MA, please write a one sentence summary of your thesis statement, in its current state.
Your MA, thus, will look like the following:
