About this title

Synopsis

This book is structured as a dictionary of knowledge and contains entries on everything from Latin phrases and historical essays to zoological classifications. Along with detailed explanations, many entries are accompanied by engravings. The author's aim was to create a work of immediate and practical use for immediate information on a wide range of topics, and it was updated and expanded in its American edition to include material more relevant to the United States. While the original publication was intended for an English audience and has some local references of little interest to American readers, these have been excised and replaced with details on the United States. A valuable addition to any home library, this book provides the reader with definitions of technical terms across the arts and sciences, along with historical and practical knowledge that would have been otherwise difficult to obtain.

Store Description

Seit �ber 30 Jahren handeln wir mit B�chern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter B�cher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen B�cher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderb�cher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten B�chern oder Haushaltsaufl�sungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbest�nde von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die M�glichkeit, gro�e Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbest�nde werden von uns professionell auf Qualit�tsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgf�ltig f�r den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken B�chern ein zweites Leben.
