By using a search engine such as Google many of my publications can be tracked down. What you find may depend on what version of my name you use (eg David Bartholomew, D J Bartholomew etc). There are also other David Bartholomews in the world who's interests and publications might be confused with my own. The purpose of this site is to provide a definitive  and classified list of my publications. It does not include book reviews or other ephemeral publications. Some more serious publications may have been inadertently omitted. Further information may be obtained by writing to me at djbartholomew@btinternet.com. Basic biographical information may be found in my Who's Who entry.

Books and papers are colour coded, by broad subject area as follows.

Brown   Mathematical and general statistics
