Resource materials for 427

This is a list of some of the books relevant to this course. It may evolve as the course progresses.

Books

Unfortunately, not all of these are available in the physical sciences [[1]]. Wals library contains some of the missing ones.

Currently, few of these books are on reserve. If contention becomes a problem, we will change them to 3 day loan.
