USING THE SITE

The contents of the site can be accessed one of two main ways, either by chapter, or by category. From the main page, you can choose a chapter from the chapter menu at the bottom of the page, or you can click one of the four category buttons (Topics, Essays, Study Questions, Readings) towards the top. If you choose a chapter, you will see a list of all material related to that chapter. If you choose a category, you will see a list of all the items in that category (across all chapters). From either list, simply click the title of the item you wish to access.

Once within a content page, simply scroll down to read the text. All images (figures, tables, and text) will display within the text, and these can also be clicked to open a larger version. (This is useful for very detailed figures that may be hard to read at the smaller size.)

The "breadcrumb" line at the top of the content area keeps track of where you are, and is an easy way to get back to a chapter list or the main page. The breadcrumb line looks like this: HOME :: CHAPTER 1 :: Topic 1.6. Simply click the chapter title or the Home link. Also, at any time you can choose a new chapter from the chapter menu at the top of any content page.
