How to remove the "Bibliography" title in book class

Question

Here:

Gonzalo Medina suggests to use:

\usepackage{etoolbox}
\patchcmd{\thebibliography}{\section*{\refname}}{}{}{}

to remove the word "References" before the references; this works great for the article class; how to do the same for the book class?

Try \makeatletter\patchcmd{\thebibliography}{\chapter*{\bibname}\@mkboth{\MakeUppercase\bibname}{\MakeUppercase\bibname}}{}{}{}\makeatother — moewe, May 20 '21 at 15:34

@Mensch While that is a valid reason to close a question, I thought it would be better in this case to make the comment into a CW answer. It would be useful to someone else with the same problem. — Davislor, Oct 26 '21 at 23:02
