ENCYCLOPAEDIA OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY ( 5VOLUME )

The Encyclopaedia of Science and Technology
is unique compilation of terms and definitions
that explains the basic scientific and technical
principles of all relevant disciplines.
This encyclopaedia covers terminology
from-Physics, Chemistry, Biology,
Computers, Medical, Biophysics, Bio-
chemistry, Environmental Science, Agriculture.
Thus selection of terms dealing with standards
and measurements and the practical
applications of mathematics, chemistry and
physics has not been limited Similary Strems
dealing with aeronautics, electricity, radio and
chemistry of synthetic and plastics (especially
synthetic rubber), automotive mechanics and
ship-building have been included to the limit
of available material. Broad coverage has also
been given to the fields of current importance
in the war effort, particularly aerodynamics
of flight, air and marine navigation,
meteorology, photography and surveying, the

design, printing and book-binding, ceramics,
glass and paper-making, leather and textiles,
mining, lumbering and wood, the petroleum
industry, paints and fuels, etc.
This work should prove a valuable reference
tool to institutes, libraries and students of
science.
