How to Structure your essay Useful linking phrases How to cite your work and write a bibliography (from the Dulwich Library wiki) Example essay 1 - Our senses tell us that a table, for example, is a solid object; science tells us that the table is mostly empty space. Thus two sources of knowledge generate conflicting results. Can we reconcile such conflicts?

Example essay 2 - “…we will always learn more about human life and human personality from novels than from scientific psychology.” (Noam Chomsky). To what extent would you agree?

Example essay 3 - “Context is all” (Margaret Atwood). Does this mean that there is no such thing as truth?
