Good nonfiction makes an argument and keeps the reader oriented. Your writer starts by clarifying the book's promise: what the reader will understand or be able to do by the end. The chapter structure is then built to deliver that promise step by step, with each chapter making one clear point and earning its place.
Facts, figures and quotations are checked against their sources, and anything that needs a citation is referenced. Where your own experience supports the argument, the writer draws it out in interviews so the book is grounded in what you actually know.
