Abstract

Items cited in this bibliography relate to the history of science in Australia and its neighbours New Zealand, New Guinea and other islands of the Pacific Ocean near Australia, and Antarctica. Publications include material on the history of the natural sciences (mathematics, physical sciences, earth sciences, and biological sciences), some of the applied sciences (including medical and health sciences, agriculture, and engineering), and human sciences (psychology, anthropology, and sociology). Also of interest is biographical material on people active in these sciences. Sources used in compiling this bibliography include an extensive list of journals and databases that have yielded relevant citations in the past. These have been particularly useful in locating epublications. In particular, the libraries of the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne and the University of Melbourne were useful sources of material, as were the catalogues of the National Library of Australia and the National Library of New Zealand Te Papa Matauranga O Aotearoa. Assistance has been received from a number of people who sent items or information for inclusion in the bibliography. In particular, Professor Rod Home has diligently forwarded citations. Staff of the eScholarship Research Centre at the University of Melbourne, especially Helen Morgan and Ailie Smith, were of great assistance in the preparation of this bibliography. Thanks are also due to those individuals who alerted the compiler to relevant information. Readers may have access to information about relevant books, journal articles, conference papers, reports, Master's and PhD theses, and reviews published in 2011. They are encouraged to send such information to the compiler at the above email address for inclusion in future bibliographies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
