Question

I am using an MLA format, and I have a question concerning the in-text citation. If the book I am referencing has three authors and it does not stress who says what how would I cite that?

Answer 1

name all the authors in your parenthetical or only the first autor folled by "et al," latin for and ohers.

Answer 2

What if the authors have the same last name?

Answer 3

list them all alphabetically, or use et al. I would definitely use et al in this case. Only include the first author in your parenthetical by last name (Reel et al).
