• The syllabus
• Required texts
• The readings from Locke's Essay Concerning Human Understanding are not included in the textbooks. You are welcome to use any edition. Since you probably don't own a copy, I've provided them here as text files. Each excerpt provides the reading for one class session:
  • Innate ideas, Book I Chapter II and Ch IV secs 8-18
  • Personal identity, Book II Chapter 27
  • General terms, Book III Chapter III secs 1-9, 14-20
