Style notes for this reference type
- See Manual 14.100 and 14.79.
- Specify the edition if it is not the first edition.
- Editor's name(s) should be followed with the abbreviation ed. (or eds.). Use the same format where there is a translator or compiler instead of an editor.
- In the footnotes, do not use 'p' or 'pp' before the page numbers.
- In the bibliography, works without an author should appear alphabetically by the main word of the title (ignore ‘the’, ‘a’ and ‘an’). See Manual 14.79.
- In the bibliography, no page numbers are given for books. Give beginning and ending page numbers for book chapters.
- Use the shortened form for second and subsequent footnotes.
- For online books, include the DOI (or URL) as the last part of the citation and refer to section headings in lieu of page numbers.
