For the various lectures I have put my notes on line as links. These may be the overheads that I bring to class and/or suggested links for you to read.

There is a very useful timeline of philosophers that gives short descriptions of philosophers and defines many terms. Further up on this link, there is a page that leads to discussions on ca. 40 philosophers and where you can buy various books.

Aristotle

Rene Descartes

Monad

Avogadro and Gay-Lussac

Dalton

Vacuum and gases
