This Resource Letter provides a guide to the literature on critical point phenomena and phase transitions. Journal articles and books are cited for the following topics: continuous phase transitions, critical points, model systems with special attention to the Ising model and the Kosterlitz–Thouless transition, mean-field theory, computer simulation methods, scaling, universality, and the renormalization group. © 2001 American Association of Physics Teachers.
