[edit]There are a few references I was tempted to add, but didn't...because I was uncertain how relevant they are to the material. Instead, I will list them here in an annotated bibliography. Someone else will bear any responsibility for adding them to the article.

There is probably a great deal more I have neglected, or am unaware of. —Pqnelson (talk) 18:24, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
