    • Rousseau - your assigned section 
  • In order to be able to see the numbers you must right click and the links and download and save the doc to you desktop; just clicking on the link will NOT show you where the numbers are so you know where to start and stop reading.(I know this is a lot of dense, philosophical reading, so set a time limit of 45 uninterrupted minutes to spend on this and get as much done as possible in that time between skimming and thinking--there will be time to sort out any confusion in class.)
