B(1). Sample Citation and Introduction to Citing Individual Volumes With a Separate Title but Without Separate Authors/Editors Vancouver Style

The general format for a reference to a volume of a book with a separate title but without separate authors/editors, including pagination:

Many medical texts are published in more than one volume because the number of pages is too large to be contained in one physical volume. If a book is published in multiple volumes, and if each volume has a separate title, the volumes may be cited individually:

• Use the title page and the verso (back) of the title page of the individual volume as the source for authoritative information.

• Place volume information immediately following the overall title for the book and any edition information or secondary author.

• Give the pagination for the individual volume following the date of publication.
