Chicago Style Citation

Indirect citation

Chicago Style discourages the use of indirect quotes, but if the original source is not available, use the phrase 'quoted in'.  For example, if Hacking's work is cited in DeLanda and you did not read Hackings's work, list the DeLanda citation in the Bibliography -- do not list the Hacking work.

Note:

7. Ian Hacking, The Social Construction of What? (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1999), 103, quoted in Manuel DeLanda, A New Philosophy of Society (New York: Continuum, 2006), 2.
