Introduction to Subject Bibliography: The bibliography is taken from the compilation since 1980 of new books and dissertations listed in History of Science in America: News and Views, the newsletter of the Forum for the History of Science in America.   (i.e., it is a selection from the Downloadable Bibliography of Books & Dissertations of works that relate in whole or in part to the nineteenth century). Currently there are over 2,450 citations. The subject heading links to the bibliography are given alphabetically below.
For an alternative view of the headings, see their groupings into broad subject categories.
For additional information on arrangement and subject headings, see the Notes. In the bibliography entries, DAI = Dissertation Abstracts International.
