Norman Wingate Pirie

Bibliography Norman Wingate Pirie—Bibliography [Compiled by Angela Arnold, Library, IACR – Rothamsted]

Pirie left 536 reprints or photocopies of his published works, 520 bound in 26 volumes containing 20 items each and a further 16 unbound. He numbered them all in approximately chronological sequence. They contain research papers, reviews, and, increasingly with time, more ephemeral items such as newspaper articles, letters to editors, and book reviews. Not all his more ephemeral articles are included and he presumably included those that he thought had some substance. Pirie's numbering has been retained even though occasional items are chronologically misplaced. Where items are from books or symposia proceedings that he edited, this is indicated. Four unnumbered books are listed first.
