9/7/06 I have updated the outlines for Friday and Monday. In addition I changed the reading schedule so that reading Malthus is optional since I want you to read Hardin's Tragedy of the Commons and write your essay on it. Both are available online via links on the schedule. I highly recomend at least browsing through some of Malthus.
