Alphabetical Bibliography on Medical Effects of Lightning Strikes

This bibliography includes papers published about the medical effects of lightning on people. Dr. Chris Andrews in Australia has a much more comprehensive list at www.thehub.com.au/~candy/rsch.htm. The following listing tends to include more recent papers in the English language, and does not include electric shock events unless lightning cases are also included. The listing organizes papers by author. Within an author's list of publications, papers are ordered by year, then by number and names of co-authors, then by titles of papers. A chronological bibliography of the same papers is also on this web site.
