The Chemical Age - Chemical Dictionary - Chemical Terms.

By Hesperides

Book Overview

The vast output of chemical literature at the present time is presenting almost insuperable difficulties to those who attempt to keep abreast of the rapid advances in chemical science. Not the least of these difficulties is the terminology of the subject, for chemical terms are multiplying at a bewildering rate. Frequently, too, when a new word or expression is coined it is followed up with an abbreviation or symbol by which it is expressed. One has, in fact, only to glance through the abstracts of the English and American Chemical Societies to realise the difficulty. The Chemical Age Dictionary of Chemical Terms has been compiled by experts to meet the needs of all those who have to consult not only original papers or their abstracts but other forms of literature as represented by reviews and modern textbooks. It will, therefore, make a direct appeal to all chemists from the student to the director of research. The subjects dealt with include organic, inorganic, physical, analytical and biochemistry.
