September 8
The University Bookstore has received the new order of textbooks. I thank Kelsey Arnold, who works at the bookstore, for forwarding this information to us.
September 3
Since we did not have time to finish all the details 4(b) and 4(d) (page 12) in class, written solutions of these two exercises will be due on the week of September 8. The solutions should include every detail.
August 27
We have asked the bookstore to order additional copies of the textbook. (I am told that the bookstore on UTSA Blvd. still has some copies from the first order.)
While these arrive, I will bring to class photocopies of the first three sections of the book.
The book is also available from online book retailers.
