First author name is written last name first; subsequent author names are written first name, last name. If there are more than three authors, you may list only the first author followed by the phrase et al. (the abbreviation for the Latin phrase "and others"; no period after "et").
Two or Three Authors Examples:

Marquart, James W., Sheldan E. Olson, and Jonathan R. Sorensen. The Rope, the Chair, and the Needle: Capital

After the first listing of the author's name, use three hyphens and a period instead of the author's name. List books alphabetically by title.
Example:
Palmer, William J. Dickens and New Historicism. New York: St. Martin's, 1997. Print.
---. The Films of the Eighties: A Social History. Carbondale: Southern Illinois UP, 1993. Print.
A corporate author may be a commission, a committee, or any group whose individual members are not identified on the title page:
Example:
American Allergy Association. Allergies in Children. New York: Random, 1998. Print.
List and alphabetize by the title of the book.
Example:
Encyclopedia of Indiana. New York: Somerset, 1993. Print.
Cite the book as you normally would, but add the editor after the title.
Example:
Bronte, Charlotte. Jane Eyre. Ed. Margaret Smith. Oxford: Oxford UP, 1998. Print.
