A list of entries showing all Renfrew's works published in 1972 is displayed.

1	Renfrew	EMERGENCE CIVILISATI	225	1972
66	Renfrew	EMERGENCE CIVILIZATI		1972

The number next to Renfrew's name means that 142 people have cited this work. The 65 people who cited it, spelt the word civilisation with a "z" instead of "s", while the other entries cited only a particular page number in the book.

Click on the button

A list of people who have cited that book in their own works then appears. For example:
