Devise a question that will elicit a broad class discussion of the material covered in Chapter 3. The question must be of the sort that we can actually answer based on a reading of Chapter 3 and that requires more than a one-sentence answer. Think in terms of an essay question. Your question should be a real question, one that ends with a question mark. In one paragraph, explain the validity / usefulness of your question.
