Bibliography

As for reference texts, the course is built by drawing from various textbooks, such as for example:

Other texts for further study

The purchase of textbooks (which are often very expensive or out of print) is not required. The course can be followed using only the information provided during lectures and the slides. Some of these books are available in the University libraries (their locations are indicated after the bibliographic details), and upon request I can also make some of these texts available for consultation to interested students.
