De-emphasizing the "extracted" theory
extract" the interesting parts of the book.
not good
The cost of trying to quote in good faith is inflated.
It's just a cutout of the book, an inferior copy.
Most of the words that are impressive at first sight are often lost in context and unintelligible after six months.
Instead of "taking a piece of the book out," find the coupling of your knowledge with the knowledge in the book and record it.
