Recommended Readings

The video lectures are designed to be self-contained; therefore,

we recommended but do not require the following readings. The
recommended readings have been selected to enhance the course
experience; however, not all of the intellectual property owners
of these materials make them freely available on the internet.
While we strive to find sources of additional materials which are
freely available, sometimes the best additional materials we
would like to alert students to are only available from their
respective copyright owners for compensation. Rather than not
alert the students to these materials, we have decided to list
them and let students make their own decision on whether they
would like to invest the money to view these materials.
