Andrew Davison: Publications

This publications page is now rather out of date; but it's OK because Google is taking care of it for me! Please see my profile page on Google Scholar Citations which should maintain an up-to-date list of all my publications with full citation information and PDFs easy to find for every paper. Hit the "YEAR" tab to see the most recent papers first.
