Students are required to read material that has been assembled from journals and books. In addition, students are responsible for material in class handouts. Each of these papers will review one of the assigned articles. Comparison reviews should cover articles due on the same day and should be handed in on that day. The individual reviews should be critical appraisals of the articles, and should go beyond summarizing the authors' views .
Graduate students write a review of two books.
For the other review, students choose a book in consultation with N. Ettlinger. This book should be up to date and related to the the student's intended area of specialization. Note that the selection of a book to review involves library research to identify the trends etc. Do not delay in getting strarted on this project. The book reviews are due on or before the last day of class.
