1992 READING LIST
(Note: Some faculty have highly suggested that you read their books. I have changed those recommendations to be required. I have done so because the seminar is not a course where a faculty member will offer you a set body of information in a lecture format. This is a seminar and its intent is to engage you in the dialogue about the issues to which these people have given great time and thought. Thus, you should be familiar with the material they have already published on the issues to be discussed. Where a faculty person has suggested a number of readings, try to read at least two of them. - Cheryl)
