It is not meant to be an exhaustive list you may find resources that are useful, too, but do not appear here. Also, be aware that the lists of resources will change as the course progresses, so keep checking Some resources might bridge different parts of the course and might appear more than once. It s also important that you can identify where the specialised concepts relate to or are exemplified by aspects from the material you read/review.
