COMMENTS: This book is optional. The course is primarily taught from my lecture notes. I will NOT be assigning any required readings or problem sets from the book. The point of listing it is to provide students with a resource just in case they need an alternative to the lecture notes. The book is expensive ~~$200 (as are most textbooks). Consequently, I recommend attending the first few weeks of classes and seeing how you are doing. If you need another resource, you can then buy the book.
