Add to basketPaperback. Condition: Good. A Dictionary of Science (1964) ? E.B. Uvarov, D.R. Chapman & Alan Isaacs Penguin Reference Books ? ISBN: none (scientifically pre-ISBN) ? Condition: Good Reissued to the curious and slightly confused by Crappy Old Books So you want to understand science the way a reasonably optimistic person did in 19…64 ?before quarks were cool, before dark matter was a dinner-party topic, and when computers were still mostly the size of wardrobes? Excellent. You?ve come to the right paperback. A Dictionary of Science (1964) is a beautifully earnest attempt to explain the entire universe in alphabetical order, created by people with sensible initials and serious views on physics, chemistry, and the dignity of reference books. Brought to you by Penguin Reference Books , it?s designed to sit on a shelf and quietly radiate competence. Condition: Good (a.k.a. ?Has Survived Several Eras of Scientific Panic?) When Crappy Old Books says Good , we mean: Covers: Intact, attached, and still reassuring in that ?I am a proper reference book? way Spine: Solid, possibly showing a mild crease or two?evidence that at least one person once panicked before an exam and thought, ?Better look up specific heat capacity.? Pages: All present, not gnawed, not half-fallen-out, still fully capable of conveying information and mild nostalgia Wear: Light shelfwear, maybe a softened corner here and there, the odd smudge that says ?I lived on a real desk next to a real cup of tea, not in a climate-controlled book museum? No loose leaves, no ink explosions, no ambitious but failed attempts to ?update? entries in biro. What?s Inside (Besides the Smell of Old Paper and Quiet Authority) Open it up and you?ll find: A?Z entries covering the scientific greatest hits of the mid-20th century Physics, chemistry, biology, maths, and general ?things that make the world work? explained with calm confidence Diagrams and definitions from a time when calculators were sci-fi and the atom was still enjoying its glamorous golden age Expect definitions of: Atom , molecule , entropy , isotope , and other words you definitely once pretended to understand Scientific laws and constants offered with such certainty you can almost hear a teacher saying, ?Memorise this? Technologies described as ?recent? that now feel as modern as a bakelite telephone Some of the science has evolved. Some of it has been refined. A bit might be gloriously wrong or at least charmingly incomplete. But that?s half the fun: it?s like time-travelling into what clever people thought ?the future? would be, armed only with log tables and optimism. Why You Secretly Need This This isn?t just a dictionary . It?s: A snapshot of what science education looked like before the internet arrived and ruined everyone?s attention span A comforting reminder that the basic laws of physics haven?t actually changed (even if the cosmology has gone a bit wild since) The perfect desk companion if you like your facts slightly yellowed and smelling faintly of library Perfect for: Students who want to see how their grandparents revised for exams without YouTube Writers and nerds looking for gloriously retro scientific phrasing People who enjoy reading reference books for fun, but don?t necessarily want to admit that in public Anyone who likes to say, ?Well, according to a 1964 Penguin reference text? ? in a very smug voice Vintage Penguin Vibes As a Penguin Reference Books veteran, this volume brings: No-nonsense design that says, ?We are here for information, not vibes? That compact, portable format ideal for shoving into a satchel next to a slide rule and a soggy sandwich An aura of reliability strong enough to make you feel like you should probably sit up straighter just touching it It?s the kind of book you can leave lying around and instantly increase the perceived IQ of the room by about 5 points. Useful Data (Because It?s Science) Title: A Dictionary of Science Authors: E.B. Uvarov, D.R. Chapman & Alan Isaacs Publisher: Penguin Reference Books (1964) ISBN: None ? this book predates the barcode overlords Condition: Good ? used, solid, and fully functional for both learning and smugness A Dictionary of Science : for when you want your reference material factual, slightly out-of-date, and reassuringly serious. Ideal for the desk, the bedside table, or that shelf where you keep books that make you look dangerously educated. Proudly provided in gently pre-loved condition by Crappy Old Books .
