Referencing help needed!

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Hi all,

Bit of a problem, i need to reference a book in an essay im writing but this book is not just a normal book its a selection of chapters written by other theorists then edited and put together by the 'author' of the book.
So who do i reference using the harvard referencing system?

ex. Editor of the book: joe blogs
chapter 1 (written by): geert hofstede
chapter 2 (writen by) Edward Hall
Chapter 3 etc etc

It doesnt actually have an author noted, just says who its edited by only i dont really want to put their name down as author of the book as they havent actually written anything themselves..

    Chapter's author (e.g. HALL, E.), year of publication, title of their chapter, in book's author (BLOGS, J., ed.,) title of book, page no.

    Does that make sense?

    I think thats right. Thats how I do it & I use the Harvard system.
