Abstract
Unlike the fifth order mock theta functions, the sixth order mock theta functions (so named in [39]) seemingly do not yield to any elementary considerations. Consequently, this chapter will, of necessity, be somewhat long in order to include not only analogues of the mock theta conjectures (cf. Chapter 6), but also the various relations between these functions (cf. Chapter 5).
