In my opinion, a lecture should not be passed over; it gives a unique viewpoint into the individual lecturer's research and experiences that may not be found in another writer's book. And you can ask questions as well.<br /><br />I record all the lectures I attend, or take notes for future reference.Bongos not bombshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10244163832143463894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8258429371043827973.post-41954570885878331552009-07-29T12:53:15.471-07:002009-07-29T12:53:15.471-07:00G,

I prefer a book that I can always return to for reference. Have you read any books covering the topics he covered in his lectures?<br /><br />Thanks,<br />JoeCubaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
