Authoritative, comprehensive, and up-to-date--an indispensableresource for translators of Russian scientific and technicalmaterials The spirit of cooperation that now exists between the Russianscientific community and its English-speaking colleagues has openeda floodgate of Russian language technical and scientific documents.To meet the demand for an authoritative and up-to-date reference,the classic Callaham's Russian-English Dictionary of Science andTechnology has now been published in a new edition that encompassesthe latest additions to the technical vocabulary. The product ofdecades of painstaking research by distinguished Russian languagetranslators, this essential reference book upholds the highstandard of thoroughness and accuracy that scientific and technicaltranslators require. Technical specialists all over the English-speakingworld--translators and interpreters, scientists, andengineers--will welcome the arrival of the Fourth Edition ofCallaham's Russian-English Dictionary of Science and Technology. * Over 120,000 Russian terms in the physical, life science, andengineering disciplines, and an additional 5,000 of the mostfrequently used, nontechnical terms * Entries organized around common roots and arranged in paragraphform for greater efficiency * The most comprehensive translations of Russian verbs found in anytechnical dictionary, complete with variations in meaning fordifferent contexts * Instructive linguistic information on how Russian prefixes,suffixes, and roots combine to form new words

Möchte man sich auf einem Gebiet Wissen aneignen, sei es, weil es ein Studium oder der Beruf verlangt oder rein aus Interesse, findet man sich zunächst in einem Wald aus Fremwörtern wieder. Das vorliegende Werk aus dem Jahre 1911 will diesem Problem auf dem Gebiet der Schifffahrt Klarheit entgegen setzen. Der Autor John Barten hat alle nautischen Fachbegriffe zusammengefasst, sodass es jedem Interessierten hilft, diese Wissenschaft zu verstehen. Hierbei handelt es sich um ein zweisprachiges Wörterbuch.
Two thousand years ago, the lute was imported to China via overland trade routes from Central Asia and was adopted quickly in many of the regions. Ancient court documents describe how generations of talented musicians developed its music. John E. Myers translates one of these documents to introduce to readers of the English language the traditional music and artistic philosophy of the Chinese lute or pipa. He combines language and musical skills with an aesthetic sensibility in sharing what he calls this world of expressive beauty.
The rigors of engineering must soon be applied to the software development process, or the complexities of new systems will initiate the collapse of companies that attempt to produce them. Software Specification and Design: An Engineering Approach offers a foundation for rigorously engineered software. It provides a clear vision of what occurs at each stage of development, parsing the stages of specification, design, and coding into compartments that can be more easily analyzed. Formalizing the concepts of specification traceability witnessed at the software organizations of Rockwell, IBM FSD, and NASA, the author proposes a strategy for software development that emphasizes measurement. He promotes the measurement of every aspect of the software environment - from initial testing through test activity and deployment/operation. This book details the path to effective software and design. It recognizes that each project is different, with its own set of problems, so it does not propose a specific model. Instead, it establishes a foundation for the discipline of software engineering that is both theoretically rigorous and relevant to the real-world engineering environment.
With the development of accurate molecular calculations in recent years, useful predictions of molecular electronic properties are currently being made. It is therefore becoming increasingly important for the non-theoretically oriented chemist to appreciate the underlying principles governing molecular orbital formation and to distinguish them from the quantitative details as sociated with particular molecules. It seems highly desirable then that the non theoretician be able to deduce results of general validity without esoteric mathematics. In this context, pictorial reasoning is particularly useful. Such an approach is virtually indispensable if bonding concepts are to be taught to chemistry students early in their careers. Undergraduate chemistry majors typically find it difficult to formulate molecular orbital schemes, especially delocalized ones, for molecules more complicated than diatomics. The major reason for this regrettable situation is the general impracticability of teaching group theory before students take organic and inorganic courses, wherein the applications of these concepts are most beneficial. Consequently many students graduate with the misconcep tion that the ground rules governing bonding in molecules such as NH3 are somehow different from those which apply to aromatic systems such as C H • 6 6 Conversely, seniors and many graduate students are usually only vaguely, if at all, aware that sigma bonding (like extended pi bonding) can profitably be described in a delocalized manner when discussing the UV-photoelectron spectrum of CH , for example.
Given the frequent movement of commercial plants outside their native location, the consistent and standard use of plant names for proper identification and communication has become increasingly important. This second edition of World Economic Plants: A Standard Reference is a key tool in the maintenance of standards for the basic science underlyin
