Original Bibliography

This is my original bibliography for the research conducted between 2007 and 2012. The material published here have substantially evolved from my original publication; however, the culmination of the below reference should be considered as my original reference list as I formed TSoT alongside my original research and field studies. Also note TSoT is heavily reliant, though substantially derivative, from TRIZ concepts; so TRIZ references below should carry extra weight.
