Set forth here is the Syllabus and Bibliography (amended
through [1/10]). I recognize that I only have, in the course of one semester,
enough time to skip stones across a lake, stressing in the sessions only a
pebble=s bounce of
information on each massive subject. But my overall goal is to give the class
a platform from which to question assumptions, values, and authority, hopefully
throughout the students’ lives. I am designing an online interactive version
of this course that will to continue to supplement itself with the works of new
visionaries. If you want to participate in this clearinghouse, kindly write to
