Quizplus · Accepted Answer

General sources, such as introductory textbooks or popular science books, are not typically included in a literature review because they do not provide the original research or detailed analysis that is sought after in such reviews. Literature reviews usually focus on primary sources (original research), secondary sources (analyses, interpretations, or reviews of primary sources), and sometimes tertiary sources (indexes, abstracts, or digests) for comprehensive coverage of a topic.
