The author's guidelines: The "who" must be a person, real or legendary; and the "what" could be something other than what was literally meant. Thus, 'cat's cradle' and 'baker's dozen' are not included, and 'Aristotle's lantern' and 'Newton's fits' are not at all what one might expect. [Author's Note]

With Index. The scholarship appears scrupulous, and sources are cited, but not for everything and not with a separate Reference section or page citation.
