Course Lectures

Here is a listing of the PowerPoint presentations that I will make available for the class. These may or may not be the same PowerPoints I use in class, but they do make good outlines in themselves. Because this class relies heavily on discussion during the class period, it behooves you to be familiar with the readings and these PowerPoints, even if they are not the ones I will use.

To download any of the available lectures, just click on the appropriate icon. The left icon () represents the Microsoft PowerPoint format, whereas the icon to the right () represents the .rtf format, which is readable by the vast majority of word processors.
