John Campbell’s Publications Last updated 27 Aug 2017.
This is an old man’s list, made up for grandchildren, who don’t really know me, rather than just for colleagues, who know me just a little. I have gathered them by topic then date, for clarity and ease of finding. A few appear in two different categories.
