Thank you for putting the list together. It's a great biography. I'm very intrigued by the title, "Too Scared to Learn." However I'm willing to go with the group.

Best,

Bertie Mo

I have collated all the suggestions from previous posts and listed them below. If you are interested, please look at the list, and post which resource you would like to discuss on this listserv.
Some possible considerations when deciding:
a. Is the material accessible on the Internet-not everyone has equal access to materials not on the Internet.
b. Should we do a complete book, chapter, or article? Not everyone has the same amount of time to read.
c. Is there a resource not included on this list that you would like to recommend?
Once we decide on the reading material, we can decide on the procedure of how we want to go about doing this.
By the way, if I have made a mistake in listing a resource, please let us know!
Please post your suggestions by Friday the 14th.
