Included in this bibliography are over 3,200 references to publications on Halley's Comet, its history, orbital motion, and physical characteristics, meteor streams associated with it, preparations for space missions to study it in 1986, and popular reaction to its appearances. Also cited are a few papers that, although they devote little attention to Halley's Comet as such, are of importance to the present state of knowledge about comets in general. Most of the entries describe books, parts of books, pamphlets, reports, and articles in journals, selected newspapers, conference proceedings, encyclopedias, and other collections. In addition to scientific observations and studies, there are references to early broadsides and news sheets, works of judicial astrology, comet catalogs, personal recollections, letters, fiction, drama, verse, humorous sketches, music, celestial charts, orbit diagrams and models, photographs, drawings, cartoons, and paintings. Most of these entries refer to publications in European languages, but a few items in Oriental languages are represented. Twenty illustrations, an historical introduction, a list of bibliographic sources, many annotations, and name and topical indexes are included. (Addenda and errata to the original work are also included.) (JN)
