Question

A book review would be considered

A. a primary source.
B. a secondary source.
C. a tertiary source.
D. either a secondary or tertiary source, depending on content.

Answer 1

It is definitely not a primary source: this would be a book itself.

Now, is it a tertiary source? I don't think so: the author of the review should have read the book and should only be referring to this book in the review.

I think it's a secondary source.
