Literature about Slovak karst

Here are listed publications with original and new books and articles about research and exploration results related to the global territory of the Slovak karst. Next bibliographies of the exploration and reserach reports can be found on bibliography pages of the separate caves and list of the historical documents is on the page Historic Bibliography. List of the books and journal publications which give more general and summary information is below. I note this list isn't full and unfortunately any English reports aren't present. I will be very thankful for your advice of me on other publications about Slovak karst caves in world (particularly in English).
