How to read this. A source is listed because the course used it; verified means a reviewer has checked the edition and that the course uses it accurately. Until then it is a pointer. Courses without a table yet still carry a further-reading list in their reference folder. Inside a course, modules cite an entry by its ID, for example (montgomery-8e, ch. 6).
