References

I make no apology for the age of many of these references; most of them refer to the introduction of an idea, rather than the latest glosses on it. Such later critiques and revisions tends to appear in academic journals which remain relatively inaccessible to real people. I have routinely referred to British editions of books; publishers and publication dates may differ for those you have access to.

Incidentally, it is not regarded as good practice to CAPITALISE the surnames of authors in strict APA style. I therefore do it deliberately. No--not just to be awkward. Think about it. I've not included all the punctuation, either: my take on this whole obsessional business is here.

Major references (IMHO) are in bold
