Bibliography

Readings will be selected from this bibliography.   You may suggest other relevant readings and present them after discussing them ahead of time with me. Even though we'll just read relatively short selections from these texts, because they mean a lot more in context, and are worth keeping around, I recommend that you order these books from the web, or check them out in local bookstores.
