READING INSTRUCTIONS:

Each book has its own webpage. Within each volume, a Doorway Paper — which originally was identified by a number and title — is designated by a Part number with its title. The format of this webpage is to mimic the "hardcopy" version — page by page. Thus the reader/visitor can vizualize a "real" book on the screen.

How each book is mapped:

  • It begins — as in a printed book — with a dustjacket (cover image), and abstract, and the Table of Contents. There are two ways to proceed:
    1. to access a particular section, click on PART(#) in the left hand column
    2. to access a particular chapter within that part, click on the chapter title, and the full text will appear.

How to Read:

  • It is advisable to maximize your browser window (set as large as possible) to give you as nearly as possible the mimiced printed page.
  • To "turn" the page, there are two options:
    1. use the scroll bar on your browser window to move down to the next "page"
    2. click the icons at the bottom of each "page" — the left to jump back one page, the right to move forward by one page.
  • "Numbered pages" make it easy to identify a passage either for personal use or for discussion with another who may have either the web or printed version.
