Reading:
The course material is not taken from one single book or resource. I will put up slides after each lecture (as far as possible), which should give you a rough idea of what was covered in class. The textbook below will also form a very good reference material if you want to clarify some of the concepts taught in class, or learn more about them. Excluding these, I will also give you some research papers.
