Explanation of this Guide

The material in this section was done collaboratively by me and the students in a graduate course from Fall 2006 on Conditionals. It is intended as a kind of mini-encyclopedia just covering issues about conditionals that interest philosophers. The material is woefully short of being comprehensive because there weren't that many us working on it, but I hope someone will benefit from it. If I teach the course again, I will probably again assign work to be done on this guide so that it will be filled out some more. If you want to contribute any work in the meantime, let me know.
