13. BIBLIOGHRAPHY

As mentioned in the acknowledgments a number of people assisted in the development of the highlights
in the history of ISES and the different solar technology applications. Many of the highlights came from the
knowledge that these individuals have in the particular technology areas, and they also undertook their own
book and internet searches.

The following websites and books were used by Geoff Stapleton in compiling the sections where he took the
lead in developing.
