Lectures on presheaves of spectra

The pdf files below are my lecture notes from a course on presheaves of spectra, which I gave at the University of Western Ontario during the Fall term of 2005.

The background for this course includes my previous course on simplicial presheaves, the lecture notes for which can be found at my home page.

The notes are rough so far, but will improve with the progress of time - the indicated dates are last updates. There are some hypertext links in the files, and suggestions on how to improve their utility would be welcome.

Comments or suggestions about these files are welcome, at jardine@uwo.ca.
