• Section 8.10

And… that’s it! We’re skipping 8.6 (which I would have liked to assign) and 8.9 (which is not as important).

• Section 8.7
• Section 8.8

Two readings, I know. Sorry! Then again, it is a full week between the classes!

• Section 8.5
• Chapters 7, 9, and 11
• Moby Dick

(VERY IMPORTANT note on all but 8.5: http://goo.gl/CjHH.)

• Section 8.4

• Section 8.3

• Section 8.2

• Section 8.1

A full and careful read.

• Section 8.1

I’d like you to focus your reading on: (1) how their definition of reductions differs from ours (and also how the limited version they’ll be using in “essentially all [their] reductions” (p 458) differs from ours) and (2) their “First Reduction”.

We’ll go back through and read it once more for all the details.

(As always, also read the chapter intro!)

• Section 6.8 (should be review)

After that, I encourage you to read any of the rest of Chapter 6 that interests you. It’s fascinating, useful, and deep stuff. But, we’ll move on to Chapter 8!

• Section 6.6
