In Chapter 14, Graff and Birkenstein argue that readers must understand several strategies in order to distinguish the writer’s view. All authors do not engage with readers the same way. Many authors use the “they say/I say” pattern with different strategic approaches . Graff and Birkenstein want us to look for what motivates the thesis oppose to just looking for it. For example, we must understand the author’s argument and the one they are responding to. Not only does this grasp different views of the argument, but it also helps comprehend what we are reading. Understanding different perspectives helps us engage and challenge our thoughts to new ideas.
