Abstract

In what follows, we list further references on quasicrystals and related topics. In view of the vast body of literature, we restrict ourselves to books and proceedings, plus some of the reviews not already contained in the former. Some extra comments on the content of books are included if their titles do not speak for themselves. This is meant to facilitate potential search for those readers who want or need more, but, at the end of this book, (hopefully) know what type of literature they are after.
