Textbooks

You may purchase books at the UB bookstore, or from some alternate source. (The Brown lecture notes however are only available at Makin' Copies, for the cost of copying and binding.) You may find the other items available quite cheaply from on-line sources, even taking into consideration shipping costs, so do shop around.
