Subject: Re: Althusser - Worthwhile?


Kevin,
I apparently missed your initial post, but if you check the ohiolink 
resources at your OSU library you will find copies of Althusser's books 
you can get from various libraries around the state.  It won't cost you a 
cent if you are an OSU student, and you can decide for yourself the 
importance of these works.  Ohiolink is very helpful, I use it quite 
often here at OU in Athens.
