Paperback. Etat : 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 1964 ?…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 .

Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. Condition: (see pics.) Some scuffing to the edges.Still a very good, clean and tight copy. Name of previous owner scratched out on front endpaper. Synopsis: What is a fugue? What is the difference between a saxophone and a saxhorn? Who besides Puccini wrote an opera called La Boheme? In what year wa…s the National Broadcasting Company Orchestra formed under Arturo Toscanini's direction? These and thousands of similar questions are answered in this comprehensive dictionary that remains unrivaled as a single-volume summary. A New Dictionary of Music is a basic reference work for anyone interested in music, whether performer or layman. It covers orchestral, solo, choral, and chamber music, opera, and (in its musical aspects) the ballet. There are entries for composers (with biographies and details of compositions); works well known by their titles, such as operas and symphonic poems; orchestras, performers and conductors of importance today; musical instruments (including those of the dance and brass bands); and technical terms. English names and terms are used whenever possible, but foreign terms in general use are cross-referenced. Particular importance has been attached to bringing the reader abreast of new musical developments. The composers and musical works chosen were those most likely to be encountered. Where an opera is given an entry, a brief explanation of the title follows. Similarly explication is provided for other works bearing literary or otherwise allusive titles. Among performers and conductors, only the following are included: those who, although dead, continue to be prominent through recorded performances (e.g., Gigli); the highest-ranking international artists of today, plus a very few apparently on the verge of attaining that rank; a few who, though not necessarily at the very head of their profession, are closely associated with composers in bringing out new works, or are conductors in charge of important orchestras. Arthur Jacobs is well-known both in his native England and in the United States as a critic, author, translator of librettos, lecturer, and broadcaster.

Paperback. Etat : Good. A Dictionary of Geography (1950) by W.G. Moore (Penguin Reference Books) ? Condition: Good, as sold by Crappy Old Books You know what they say: never judge a book by its cover?especially if that cover has recently been glued back on with the tender loving care of a battlefield medic applying stitches. Yes…, this 1950 Penguin reference treasure came to us in a state that could politely be called ?geographically dislocated? (the body had parted ways with the cover), but after a careful round of literary first aid, it now stands proudly whole once again. Think of it as a vintage atlas with a hip replacement: sturdy, dependable, and ready for another fifty years of service. Inside, you?ll find a glorious mid-century attempt to pin down the sprawling world of geography into tidy alphabetical order. Mountains, rivers, peninsulas, archipelagos?it?s all here, explained in the no-nonsense tone of a schoolmaster who expects you to know your Dardanelles from your Delaware. There?s something wonderfully grounding about a reference book from 1950. For one thing, half the world still hadn?t been rebranded by post-colonial renaming. Expect to bump into countries and borders that have since vanished into history, which makes this dictionary not only a tool of enlightenment but also a fossil record of geopolitics gone by. Condition-wise, this copy is officially Good , but thanks to its restorative surgery, it?s now more solid than many books half its age. The cover is snug, the pages remain crisp, and the book has that dignified air of a Penguin reference that has seen classrooms, libraries, and perhaps the odd kitchen table map quiz. Whether you?re a geography buff, a retro reference collector, or just someone who likes the idea of owning a time capsule that casually explains the world as it was three-quarters of a century ago, this is a book worth giving shelf space to. And if nothing else, it?s living proof that with a dab of glue and a bit of patience, the world really can be put back together.
