Summary

The Bibliography of the history of Australian science is an annual compilation of newly-published works on the history of Australian science, technology and related disciplines. Subject coverage is both the natural and applied sciences, arranged into broad categories. These are: physical sciences (including astronomy, climate and meteorology); biological sciences (including palaeontology); earth sciences (including mining, surveying, geography), mathematics; medical and health sciences; agriculture and relates sciences (forestry, horticulture); engineering and technology; and human sciences. Geographic coverage is Australia as well as near neighbours (New Zealand and Papua New Guinea) and Antarctica. Publications included are journal articles, books, chapters in edited books, reviews, reports and theses. The compilers have received invaluable assistance from readers who alert them to items that may otherwise be missed. All items listed in the Bibliography are included as published resources in the Encyclopedia of Australian Science and Innovation. The Bibliography is published in Historical records of Australian science.
