I originally constructed this web site primarily for the benefit of the students in my classes at San Francisco State University, from which I am now retired. (I am currently a research professor at the Intitute for World Religions in Berkeley, California.) I am leaving the site online in the hope that people will still find it to be useful. Since the links have not been checked in some time, some may be broken. If you find that is the case, I suggest you find an earlier version of the webpage in question on the 'waybackmachine' at http://www.archive.org/index.php. All of the material is copyrighted. Permission is granted for individual, single copy, personal use only. Please send inquiries about other use of the materials to me at repstein@sfsu.edu.
