In order to determine if the secondary sources are reliable and unreliable, then we must apply the two concepts of evaluation, which is external criticism and internal criticism. In performing external criticism, we simply take a look at the physical aspect of the source, such as the type of material, the ink used, and the other prevalent external features. For internal criticism, we take a look at the validity of information by determining the date of publication, the validity and the background of the author, and to what extent does the author takes to account.
