Bibliography

Contents

1 - Introduction

The core of this bibliography is based upon information in Robert Maier, et. al., GNU Plotutils version 2.4.1. Particular thanks is due to its authors for having tracked down the US National Technical Information Service (NTIS; http://www.ntis.gov/) stock numbers for many papers by Dr. Hershey and others.

I have listed Dr. Hershey's papers in chronological rather than alphabetical order.

The designation "[nr]" indicates that I have not in fact read the item.
