This list brings together reading listed on the Course Outline with more specific references. The reading is divided into basic reading (which you should consider reading during the course), and further reading. References marked "m" will be available in the SRC, in a box marked "George Dunbar, Methods II, Psychology". Surgeries normally will be held during term on Tuesdays from 11am-1pm in room 144.
