the text reference list

This page will serve as an always updateable reference list. I will include recommendations, as well as things that I want to study, and things that I have studied. I haven't worked out the logistics of it yet but may sort by subject/author/date/status (recommended/read/want to read)... or perhaps I'll colour code in addition. Most other influences are noted as part of the blog but I guess I should list them here and perhaps link them to the original post? Open to suggestions :)
