Annotated Bibliography on Analysis
This bibliography is intended as a reference guide to the key works
that deal, in whole or in part, with analysis and related topics such
as analyticity and definition. Cross-references are by name(s) of
author(s) or editor(s) and either year of publication or abbreviation
as indicated immediately after their name(s). Notes in square brackets
at the end of an entry indicate the relevant part(s) of the work
and/or its significance to the topic of analysis. The bibliography is
divided into sections which correspond to the sections of the main
entry on
Analysis.
Where works include important material under more than one heading,
they are cited under each heading; but duplication has been kept to a
minimum. Cross-references to other (sub)sections are provided in
curly brackets. The first section of the bibliography is contained in
the present supplement; the remaining sections can be found in
additional supplements, linked from both the list that follows and the
corresponding sections of the entry.
