There are also research books written by others where, according to the authors, much of work has been done by Shelah. These include:
- Almost Free Modules, by Paul Eklof and Alan Mekler, Elsevier 2002,
- Approximations and Endomorphism Algebras of Modules, Ruediger Goebel and Jan Trlifaj, Walter de Gruyter 2006.
As far as Shelah's papers are concerned, the selection is hard. He published, with > 200 coauthors, about 1000 hard mathematical papers, many of them within the last 5 years, in international refereed journals; see "Shelah's Archive" at http://shelah.logic.at
. The selection necessarily reflects our personal knowledge and taste.6. Every two elementarily equivalent models have isomorphic ultrapowers, Israel J. Math. 10 (1971) 224–233.
7. Infinite abelian groups, Whitehead problem and some constructions, Israel J. Math. 18 (1974) 243–256.
8. The monadic theory of order, Annals of Math 102 (1975) 379–419.
9. Primitive recursive bounds for van der Waerden numbers, J. Amer. Math. Soc. 1 (1988) 683–697.
10. Minimal bounded index subgroup for dependent theories, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 136:3 (2008) 1087–1091.
