I suggest you think of the key point or two that you want to get
across in your memo and provide an example that incorporates
the key point(s) of all the related material. Do not simply define
or describe what the chapters are about. Your memo should be
written in such a way that you can demonstrate your
understanding of the material (in assigned chapters and any other
material provided on that topic).
