"The Academic Press Dictionary of Science and Technology" is the most comprehensive, authoritative dictionary of science available. Covering 124 fields of science, the "Dictionary" will make a handsome addition to your reference collection. Key features include: approximately 124,000 fully defined entries, not counting abbreviations - the largest range of vocabulary ever compiled in a science dictionary; compete coverage of 124 fields of science and technology, including Computer Science, biotechnology, Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, Molecular Biology, Ecology, Behavior, Astronomy, Geology, and more; and, 'Windows', boxed essays for each of the 124 fields, offering a brief definition of each area - its meaning, history, and implications - by such prestigious scientists as Michael DeBakey, Stephen Jay Gould, Linus Pauling, Roger Revelle, and Jonas Salk. It also includes: completely up-to-date definitions in such dynamic fields as Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, and Biotechnology; extensive cross-references throughout to link overlapping or equivalent entries and guide readers to the preferred terms; more medical terms overall than any other general scientific dictionary now available; more coverage of subfields of medicine, including Oncology, Radiology, Hematology, Cardiology, and Toxicology; pronunciation guides for difficult or phonetically irregular terms; etymologies giving the origin of important scientific terms; definitions that are supplemented by examples of current usage; abbreviations and proper names defined in the body of the text, rather than in an appendix, for easier reference; and a complete appendix of frequently consulted scientific data, including standard weights and measures and the periodic table. It includes a Chronology of Science listing all important milestones in the history of science from 1400 to the present. It offers nearly 2,000 detailed illustrations and technical photographs, including 24 pages of color plates. Its definitions are reviewed for accuracy by a panel of eminent scientist. It is presented in a single-volume, 8 " x 11", double-column format with boldfaced entries that offer the ready easy access to definitions. It is lightweight, and features acid-free paper.
