Review

[A] clear layout, a wide range

of subjects and a fair few

illustrations. The

definitions are broken up with "Did

you know?" panels, timelines, tables, usage

explanations, etc.

(The Language People, http://www.languagepeople.com.au/archive_pdf/Sep07.pdf)

This is a delightful science dictionary aimed at key stage 4 students. It is a dictionary with a difference. As well as clear explanations of all the terms that science students may encounter there are hundreds of colour photos and diagrams... Copies should be available in every science department and in the library. (Sandra Baggley, School Science Review, December 2003, 85(311), pp131)
