Faculty of Philosophy

Most lecture courses are supplemented by lecture notes. Some are available as small PDFs (see below) at the discretion of the lecurer concerned. Alternatively some lecurers may make them available on their own web pages. Be aware that lecture notes are not substitutes for lectures and the primary way of obtaining them must be by attending lectures. Where a lecture is missed through illness a handout can be requested at a subsequent lecture. Where this is not possible please contact the lecturer direct.
