These readings are still approximate, because for some recent editions of these books I am working from the Table of Contents at the publisher's web sites, so just cite chapters. When I get to go through the actual books I will make the page references more exact.

There will be review sessions, one before each of the exams, at which you can ask questions. These will be scheduled by agreement between the class and me.

The final exam will be on Monday, December 10, 8:30-10:30 am   in the lecture room. (Comment -- that is the time and place they assigned. It is not a great time. We can agree to change it but this is hard as there is usually at least one person who can't do it at each other proposed time).

Abbreviations for authors of books (see the list at our web pages of Books on Reserve at OUGL):
