It is not easily packed up and carried away like a <a href="/wiki/Tent" title="Tent">tent</a>, or moved like a <a href="/wiki/Mobile_home" title="Mobile home">caravan</a>. If people live in the same house for more than a short stay, then they call it their "home". Being without a home is called <a href="/wiki/Homelessness" title="Homelessness">homelessness</a>. Houses are usually numbered. Some are also named. </p><p>Houses are usually occupied by a single <a href="/wiki/Family" title="Family">family</a> or housemates, like in the cases of <a href="/wiki/Group_home" title="Group home">group homes</a> and <a href="/wiki/Boarding_house" title="Boarding house">boarding houses</a>. </p><p>Houses come in many different shapes and sizes. They may be as small as just one room, or they may have hundreds of rooms. They also are made many different shapes, and may have just one level or several different levels. A house is sometimes joined to other houses at the sides to make a "terrace" or "row house" (a connected row of houses). </p><p>A big building with many levels and apartments is called "a block of flats" (British) or an <a href="/wiki/Apartment" title="Apartment">apartment</a> building. One of the differences between a house and an apartment is that a house has a front door to the outside world, whereas the main door of an apartment usually opens onto a passage or landing that can be used by other people in the building. </p><p>Houses have a <a href="/wiki/Roof" title="Roof">roof</a> to keep off the rain and sun, and walls to keep out the wind and cold. They have <a href="/wiki/Window" title="Window">window</a> openings to let in light, and a floor.

Houses like this were built for poor factory workers and coal miners in many cities and towns. "Terrace houses" are a type of row house where each house has a similar front to its neighbours. </p><p>Row houses are not always small. Some cities have large beautiful row houses, such as the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Royal_Crescent&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Royal Crescent (not yet started)">Royal Crescent</a>, which was built in the <a href="/wiki/1770s" title="1770s">1770s</a> at <a href="/wiki/Bath,_Somerset" title="Bath, Somerset">Bath</a> in England and is a famous example of <a href="/w/index.php?title=Georgian_architecture&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Georgian architecture (not yet started)">Georgian architecture</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Bungalow">Bungalow</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&veaction=edit&section=8" title="Change section: Bungalow" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>change</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section's source code: Bungalow"><span>change source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:SydneyBuilding0129.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b6/SydneyBuilding0129.jpg/220px-SydneyBuilding0129.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b6/SydneyBuilding0129.jpg/330px-SydneyBuilding0129.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b6/SydneyBuilding0129.jpg/440px-SydneyBuilding0129.jpg 2x" data-file-width="764" data-file-height="512" /></a><figcaption>A bungalow in Sydney</figcaption></figure> <p>In some places, the word "bungalow" is used for any house that is all on one level.

A bungalow often has a hall down the middle of the house to let the breeze blow through. Bungalows are often seen in countries with hot summers, in India, South East Asia, South Africa, parts of the United States, South America, Australia and New Zealand. In regions with flooding, a bungalow is often built up on wooden "stilts" or a high basement. In the 1800s, bungalows were nearly always built of wood, but from the 1920s it became fashionable to build them of brick as well. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:0_Nobressart_-_Ancienne_ferme.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/0_Nobressart_-_Ancienne_ferme.JPG/220px-0_Nobressart_-_Ancienne_ferme.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="175" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/0_Nobressart_-_Ancienne_ferme.JPG/330px-0_Nobressart_-_Ancienne_ferme.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/0_Nobressart_-_Ancienne_ferme.JPG/440px-0_Nobressart_-_Ancienne_ferme.JPG 2x" data-file-width="1896" data-file-height="1506" /></a><figcaption>A farmhouse in Belgium</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Farmhouse">Farmhouse</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&veaction=edit&section=9" title="Change section: Farmhouse" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>change</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section's source code: Farmhouse"><span>change source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A farmhouse may look like a cottage, a bungalow or a mansion.

There are three main ways of building walls with mud and clay. </p> <ul><li>One way to make a house of clay is simply to pile up the mud or wet clay with the hands, and flatten it into a wall shape. Often animal hair, straw and dung is mixed with the mud so that the fibres (stringy bits) help hold it together. Some wooden beams and thin wooden slats are used to hold the roof, which is also made of mud or clay. The roof is flat and strong enough to walk on, but must slope a bit, in case of rain. The walls are often protected from rain with plaster and paint. In many countries the walls are usually white, but in other places all the houses are painted different bright clolours. These types of houses are only found in very dry countries. Houses built in this way give good protection against the very hot sun and hot dry winds of the dessert. In the cold nights they stay quite warm.</li> <li>A second way to make the walls of a house out of mud of clay is "wattle and daub". "Wattle" is weaving from sticks. First, long sticks are stuck into the ground and then very thin sticks are woven through them, like making a basket. The thin wattle wall is then "daubed" or stuck all over on the inside and the outside with damp clay, mud or plaster, usually with some chopped straw or animal hair to help it stick together. "Wattle and daub" are often found in quite damp places where bendy willow trees or acacias (also called "wattle trees") grow. The walls need good protection from the rain, so houses like this often have roofs that have big "eaves"; the roof sticks out all around the house so that the water does not run down the walls. "Wattle and daub" houses often have big roofs made of straw, reeds, banana leaves, palm leaves, wooden shingles or big sheets of bark.</li> <li>A third way to make a house of mud or clay is to shape the wet soil into bricks before building the walls. The <a href="/wiki/Brick" title="Brick">brick</a>s can be shaped by hand, but more often they are shaped in boxes or "moulds" so that all the bricks are just the same size and shape. They are left in the hot sun until they have dried hard. Then walls can be made which are the same thickness all the way up. Clay bricks that are dried in the sun were used in <a href="/wiki/Egypt" title="Egypt">Egypt</a> and <a href="/wiki/Mesopotamia" title="Mesopotamia">Mesopotamia</a> for thousands of years.</li></ul> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Buccleuch_Cottages_Beaulieu_New_Forest.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ce/Buccleuch_Cottages_Beaulieu_New_Forest.jpg/220px-Buccleuch_Cottages_Beaulieu_New_Forest.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ce/Buccleuch_Cottages_Beaulieu_New_Forest.jpg/330px-Buccleuch_Cottages_Beaulieu_New_Forest.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ce/Buccleuch_Cottages_Beaulieu_New_Forest.jpg/440px-Buccleuch_Cottages_Beaulieu_New_Forest.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2048" data-file-height="1537" /></a><figcaption>Brick and tile houses in Beaulieu, England</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Fired_bricks">Fired bricks</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&veaction=edit&section=15" title="Change section: Fired bricks" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>change</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section's source code: Fired bricks"><span>change source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>It was discovered that if clay was used, rather than mud, very strong <a href="/wiki/Brick" title="Brick">bricks</a> could be made by "firing" (or baking) them in a "<a href="/wiki/Kiln" title="Kiln">kiln</a>" (a special oven).

Some houses built by the Ancient Romans are still standing 2000 years later. </p><p>Bricks became one of the most common building materials. In most cities, nearly all the houses are built of bricks because they are long lasting, they do not need repairing very often. Brick houses are generally made strong by having all the main walls two bricks thick. Two walls are built side by side which are "bonded" (or joined to each other) by having some bricks set so they make a bridge between the two layers. The pattern of the bonded bricks can be seen from the outside. The two main patterns are called "Flemish Bond" and "British Bond". </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Domki_budnicze_Pozna%C5%84.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4f/Domki_budnicze_Pozna%C5%84.jpg/220px-Domki_budnicze_Pozna%C5%84.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4f/Domki_budnicze_Pozna%C5%84.jpg/330px-Domki_budnicze_Pozna%C5%84.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4f/Domki_budnicze_Pozna%C5%84.jpg/440px-Domki_budnicze_Pozna%C5%84.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1280" data-file-height="960" /></a><figcaption>Tall narrow city houses of Poznań are painted in different colours.</figcaption></figure> <dl><dd>Because brick walls are heavy, a brick house needs to have a very firm base or "<a href="/wiki/Foundation_(engineering)" title="Foundation (engineering)">foundation</a>" to sit on.

People who are employing a builder to build a home are nowadays often shown pictures of all the colours of bricks and tiles that are available. This means that although in old towns, every house is made of the same type of bricks, in a modern suburb every house may look quite different. The bricks range from white through shades of red, yellow and brown and are sometimes very patterned, while the roof tiles include blue, green and yellow as well as the traditional red, orange and brown.</dd></dl> <ul><li>In some countries, the clay for bricks does not set very hard, and washes away more easily. If the bricks are not very hard, then it is usual to cover them with plaster or cement, which can then be painted. In other places, brick walls are not very fashionable so the walls are plastered and made more elegant with decoration. Plastering or cementing over brickwork is called "render" or "stucco". In many countries such as Austria, Italy and Spain, the brick houses are usually covered with stucco and are often painted cream, yellow, orange, pink, red or "orchre" (which is a mustard colour).</li></ul> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Maplecroft.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/31/Maplecroft.jpg/220px-Maplecroft.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/31/Maplecroft.jpg/330px-Maplecroft.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/31/Maplecroft.jpg/440px-Maplecroft.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1000" data-file-height="750" /></a><figcaption>"Maplecroft" is an historic timber house in Texas</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Timber">Timber</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&veaction=edit&section=16" title="Change section: Timber" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>change</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section's source code: Timber"><span>change source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Houses made of <a href="/wiki/Timber" class="mw-redirect" title="Timber">timber</a> are found wherever there are, or there has once been big forests. Timber houses are also often found in seaside towns where the sea air makes brick and stone houses feel cold and damp. </p> <ul><li>One of the oldest ways to make a timber house is to cut tree-trunks into logs. The logs are then split in half so that there is a flat side for the inside of the wall and a round side for the outside. The logs then have big "notches' or holes cut into the ends, so that when they are piled up, the logs lock together at the corners of the building without any nails. These <a href="/wiki/Log_cabin" title="Log cabin">log cabins</a> can be seen in Canada, in Switzerland, in Scandinavia, in Eastern Europe and in Japan.</li> <li>Many houses are made with a wooden "frame" or skeleton. On the outside of the frame, to keep out the weather, rows of flat boards are nailed, which overlap each other so that the rain cannot come in. Walls like this are called "clapboard" or "weatherboard". Clapboard houses are generally painted to preserve the timber. In England and some parts of the United States, they are nearly always painted white. In Australia where "weatherboard" houses are very common, they are usually painted in bright colours. In England and Australia, clapboard houses are usually quite small, but in the United States there are very many grand mansions that are built in this way.</li> <li>Some houses with a wooden frame have a brick wall on the outside and a wall of plastered board on the inside.

The timbers are arranged in a pattern with lots of diagonal pieces to act as braces. The strong wooden frame is then filled in with all sorts of other material. In some houses the "infil" is mainly of brick. In other houses, "wattle and daub" is used between the timber. Other houses have infill of "rubble" (rough stones) in clay or mud. The "infil is generally plastered over and painted white (or in some places a colour) while the timbers are often stained black. If they are not stained, they turn pale silvery grey. Hundreds of these houses exist, including some that are quite grand. In the 1800s and early 1900s, there was a fashion to copy "half-timbering" on modern brick houses.</li></ul> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Blundells%27_cottage.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/32/Blundells%27_cottage.jpg/220px-Blundells%27_cottage.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="131" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/32/Blundells%27_cottage.jpg/330px-Blundells%27_cottage.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/32/Blundells%27_cottage.jpg/440px-Blundells%27_cottage.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1936" data-file-height="1152" /></a><figcaption>A cottage of "undressed" stone with brick chimneys in Australia</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Benslie_cottages.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2d/Benslie_cottages.JPG/220px-Benslie_cottages.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2d/Benslie_cottages.JPG/330px-Benslie_cottages.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2d/Benslie_cottages.JPG/440px-Benslie_cottages.JPG 2x" data-file-width="2288" data-file-height="1712" /></a><figcaption>A cottage of "dressed" stone in Scotland</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Stone_houses">Stone houses</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&veaction=edit&section=18" title="Change section: Stone houses" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>change</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&action=edit&section=18" title="Edit section's source code: Stone houses"><span>change source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In places where there is lots of stone, many houses are built of it. In many parts of the world, little cottages are built of stone. Many mansions and palaces are also built of stone, as are nearly all castles. </p> <ul><li>Some of the oldest houses in the world are made of stone, because stone lasts a long time. They are circular houses with walls of flat stone slabs laid carefully on each other. The walls sloped gently inwards to meet in a stone roof. Other prehistoric stone houses had roofs of thatch.</li> <li>In parts of the world where there is stone that can be broken into flat slabs, then walls can be built up without any "mortar" to join the stones together. But the wind blows through the gaps, so the walls need timber or render on the inside, to keep out the weather. Stone houses of this type often have roofs made of flat stones as well. Stone roofs are very heavy and are laid on very thick beams.</li> <li>Many stone cottages are built of <a href="/wiki/Flint" title="Flint">flint</a> or "rubble" or "cobble". These are broken stones that are brought from nearby hills, or stones picked up from the farmer's fields, or gathered from a river bed. The walls are built up with stones and mortar. In some places where flint is used, the hard stones are split or "knapped" so that when they are placed on the outside of the wall, they show a shiny flat surface which is more attractive than the dull lumpy outside of a flintstone.</li> <li>Some types of stone, particularly <a href="/wiki/Limestone" title="Limestone">limestone</a> and <a href="/wiki/Sandstone" title="Sandstone">sandstone</a>, can easily be cut into big blocks that can be built up like bricks. It can also be "dressed" or smoothed on its surfaces. In villages that are near a limestone or sandstone <a href="/wiki/Quarry" title="Quarry">quarry</a> where the stone is cut, many of the cottages are built of neatly cut stones. But in towns that are far away from the quarries, it is only the mansions and palaces that are built of stone, because it is very heavy and expensive to carry across the country.</li> <li>The good thing about the types of stone that are used for grand houses is that they can easily be carved into decoration. Grand houses often have decorative carvings around the doors and windows. The building stones may also have special textures at the basement or the corners of the building.</li> <li>Grand stone houses often have roofs of thin stone called slate. They also have roofs of expensive materials like <a href="/wiki/Copper" title="Copper">copper</a> and <a href="/wiki/Lead" title="Lead">lead</a>.</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Making_modern_houses">Making modern houses</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&veaction=edit&section=19" title="Change section: Making modern houses" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>change</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&action=edit&section=19" title="Edit section's source code: Making modern houses"><span>change source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Prefabricated_house_construction.gif" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e1/Prefabricated_house_construction.gif" decoding="async" width="368" height="280" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="368" data-file-height="280" /></a><figcaption>Building a modern house from pre-made pieces.</figcaption></figure> <p>Modern houses are often made of "pre-fabricated" parts that are partly built in a factory, and are easy to put together at the site of the building.

These boards are thin, light in weight to transport, easy to put on the frame, and much cheaper than bricks or timber. A similar material can be made into roof tiles.</li> <li>Metal roofing can be rolled into thin sheets, and made in many different colours, with matching gutters and downpipes.</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Notes_and_references">Notes and references</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&veaction=edit&section=20" title="Change section: Notes and references" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>change</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=House&action=edit&section=20" title="Edit section's source code: Notes and references"><span>change source</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li>Nicholas Pevsner, <i>An Outline of European Architecture</i>, Pelican, ISBN</li> <li>Trewin Copplestone, Ed., <i>World Architecture</i>, Paul Hamlyn, ISBN</li> <li>John Summerson, <i>Architecture in Britain</i>, Pelican, <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r9724332">.mw-parser-output cite.citation{font-style:inherit;word-wrap:break-word}.mw-parser-output .citation q{quotes:"\"""\"""'""'"}.mw-parser-output .citation:target{background-color:rgba(0,127,255,0.133)}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-free.id-lock-free a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Lock-green.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited.id-lock-limited a,.mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration.id-lock-registration a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Lock-gray-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription.id-lock-subscription a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Lock-red-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Wikisource-logo.svg")right 0.1em center/12px no-repeat}body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-free a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background-size:contain;padding:0 1em 0 0}.mw-parser-output .cs1-code{color:inherit;background:inherit;border:none;padding:inherit}.mw-parser-output .cs1-hidden-error{display:none;color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-visible-error{color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{display:none;color:#085;margin-left:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-left{padding-left:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-right{padding-right:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .citation .mw-selflink{font-weight:inherit}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .cs1-format{font-size:95%}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}</style><a href="/wiki/ISBN_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="ISBN (identifier)">ISBN</a> <a href="/wiki/Special:BookSources/0140560033" title="Special:BookSources/0140560033">0140560033</a></li> <li>Trevor Yorke, <i>Tracing the History of Villages</i>, Countryside Books, <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r9724332"><a href="/wiki/ISBN_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="ISBN (identifier)">ISBN</a> <a href="/wiki/Special:BookSources/1-85306-712-1" title="Special:BookSources/1-85306-712-1">1-85306-712-1</a></li> <li>Richard Reid, <i>The Book of Buildings, the Architecture of Europe and North America</i>, Peerage Books, <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r9724332"><a href="/wiki/ISBN_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="ISBN (identifier)">ISBN</a> <a href="/wiki/Special:BookSources/0-907408-89-3" title="Special:BookSources/0-907408-89-3">0-907408-89-3</a></li> <li>R.
