Reading Assignments: The lectures cover the reading that is listed for that class. This means to stay current, you will need to do the reading for the first two classes before the second class. Some students prefer to do the reading after the class lecture, some before. It is up to you which way you want to learn the information.

Either way you do the reading, it IS necessary you get this book and do as much of the reading as you can. The book link at the top of the page takes you to a listing of where this book is sold. Don’t forget to inquire if the store has any used copies. You may also find this book at the SRJC library, which you could check out for a period of time and continue to check it out as long as others are not requesting it.
