Saenger.  A set of lecture notes will be posted on this web site as we go thru the course.  The lectures and summary notes will cover all the material that you will be responsible for on exams.  Notes in PDF format are easy to read and print but require Adobe Acrobat Reader.  Use the link to get a free copy of this useful software.
