Course Work: We expect students to read the material, and participate in class discussions. There is no final exam.
There will be at least two homeworks to help students understand the material. The problem sets may be similar to exercises given in previous years, and we trust that students not copy the published answers, following the Honor Code.
Textbook: Handouts of John's papers will be available in class and from this page. We will also examine the first 200 pages of Murray Shanahan's book, "Solving the Frame Problem."

The book is found at:
Amazon ($55)

Borders ($55)
