A Dictionary of Science. Definitions and Explanations of Terms Used in Chemistry, Physics and Elementary Mathematics.

Paperback. Wear to cover. Slight browning to edges of pages through age. This edition is a complete revision of the original work which was published in 1942 and reprinted, with minor additions and corrections in 1944. It is evident that a work of this size cannot be expected to be a reference book for the specialist; the aim, both in the original editions and in the revision, has been to define and explain scientific terms for the benefit of the layman and the student. At the same time, it is hoped that the information given is sufficiently full and accurage to be of help, on subjects outside his particular field, to the more advanced user. 239 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
