For this book, a large number of informations from books, book sections, reviews, publications and personal communications were used. It is impossible to cite all these sources.
In view of the presumed interests of the reader, I have chosen to provide a limited selection of about 600 citations, which are ordered according to the entries of this book. They include also a limited number of highly relevant citations from earlier editions.

The internet has become a most valuable resource for scientific information. Wikipedia, in particular, is a treasure trove for all kinds of reviews as well as for highly specialized information. Wikipedia articles are cited as, e. g., Wikipedia: “Interferon”. Since there is no guarantee for continuous access to a website, however, other citations of internet articles were done in a conservative manner, and movies, e. g., from YouTube, some of them quite excellent, were omitted.
