Over 500 new entries have been added since the second edition appeared in 1996. Of the 1862 total entries, 341 include illustrations of string figures and instructions for making them, 372 include illustrations only, and 19 include instructions only (no illustrations). The remaining entries document other aspects of string figures as described below. Each entry is prefaced by a symbol that identifies the type of information it contains: ⇒ An arrow indicates that the cited work includes both string figure illustra- tions and instructions.These are, of course, the classic source documents of the string figure literature, highly sought after by anyone wishing to pursue comparative studies or augment their personal repertoire of figures. A square indicates that the cited work includes instructions for making string figures, but lacks illustrations. Fortunately, these are relatively rare! ∗ An asterisk indicates that the cited work includes illustrations of string fig- ures, but lacks instructions describing how to make them. Unfortunately, some of the most interesting string figure collections ever published belong to this category (e.g., Roth, 1902, or Campbell, 1971). • In most cases, a filled circle indicates that the cited work includes informa- tion on string figures but lacks illustrations and instructions for making them. The quality and extent of information varies considerably. Some of the cited works merely mention string figures in passing or feature them in a unique way (novels, paintings, calendars, cartoons). Others include sup- plemental data of great interest such as: names given to string figures at specific locations, beliefs associated with their manufacture, information on who makes them and why, and so forth. Although few in number, works that the Dr. Storer has been unable to examine personally are also included in this category. Some of these may indeed include string figure illustrations and/or instructions, but cannot be classified as such until located. As in previous editions, the entries in this edition are sorted by author. A searchable electronic version is available from the publisher upon request (diskette or e-mail attach- ment). An abridged version, with entries sorted by geographic region, is available on the World-Wide-Web (www.isfa.org/biblio.htm). Mark A. Sherman, ISFA Press Additions and corrections Additions, corrections, completion of reference citations, comments and inquiries are cordially invited.
