200 Links
There is so much information available on the net, it is sometimes difficult to find
reliable information for research. Below are some of the more better pages for
relevant authors that I have found to date. Notice that not every site linked here is
necessarily scholarly enough to use in a paper. Apply the normal standards.
At present, there are some fifty links here, but this is a work in progress; the goal
is, well, two hundred. If you find a page that you think deserves a link on this page, let me know.
