Note: The starting point for this list was provided on
October 16,
1994, by Putnam Barber. Some of the book listings below include
links to Amazon.Com for online ordering. Such orders generate
royalties which are used to maintain the Internet Nonprofit Center.
There is no particular logic to the selection of books which have
ordering links; they are just the ones where the link was found when
an editor had time to look up the ordering information.
