             Circles of Note: Bibliography on the Crop Circles   
            Updated June 9, 1991   
      
                           Michael Chorost   
      
        Bibliographies always look rather dry.  However, a careful reader   
   can learn much from this one, since many of the entries have parentheti-   
   cal summaries attached to them.  Also, a close look at the topics will   
   reveal the diversity of the crop circles phenomenon and the responses it   
   has gathered.  Finally, the sections on books, magazines, and studies   
   include price and ordering information, where known.   
      
        I should note two sets of exclusions.  First, I have not indexed   
   articles from journals devoted to cerealogy.  Much of the best information   
   has been printed in their pages; back numbers can often be obtained by   
   writing to the editors.  Second, I have tended to include newspaper arti-   
   cles only of particular interest or informativeness, such as ones reporting   
   circles in detail, non-English circles, or noteworthy points of view.   
      
        Inclusion in this bibliography does not imply endorsement.   
      
        I am indebted to my contacts and colleagues in England, Canada,   
   and the United States, who generously sent me many of the articles listed   
   here.  I would be grateful to receive any corrections and additions, which   
   will be included in future updates.  Contact me at:
