A complete bibliography If you are interested in my writings on critical systems thinking and critical systems heuristics, critical pragmatism, reflective professional practice and research, philosophy for professionals, social planning, evaluation research and policy analysis, poverty research, or other topics of interest to me, you'll find here a complete list of my publications. You can also use the list for bibliographic reference, e.g., for identifying the exact source where you can find papers that you have seen quoted inaccurately, or for checking the accuracy of your own references. Where on-line versions are available, links are given as far as possible; links to journals that offer restricted access only, dependent on a subscription or pay-per-view fee, are marked "(restricted access)." Some of the listed publications are available for download on this web site; they are listed in the page "Downloads." Of others, reprints may be available, see the page "Hard Copies." For a short list of recommended readings on my major area of specialization, critical systems methodology, see the page "Selected Readings on CSH." |
