Printed Books, including monographs
Date of first publication is given unless a later one is materially significant. Though many of these books have never been reprinted, some even the earliest and most obscure are available as downloads. Place of publication is not given since this is easily determined on the internet if required, as are any later editions with notes and/or introductions. In the endnotes I have given only short titles.
