    Well, I didn't find a book that would perfectly fit the needs of this course and ended up writing one of my own.
    Chapters including many exercises will be provided as soon as they are ready. Here is the tentative table of contents.

    The midterms will be based on the material of chapters 1 and 2 respectively.
    At least 1/2 of all questions on the exams will come from exercises in the text - So, solving all of them is strongly recommended!
