4 out of 6 found this review helpful
I found this book is very helpful for finding some chemical material. I myself not a chemist or someone that works for chemical related things. This book contains very straight information, and easy to understand.

The Penguin Dictionary of Chemistry: Third Edition (Dictionary, Penguin) Overall, I like this dictionary, and I am glad that I bought it. I would have liked it better if the author had included the Latin and Greek stems of the terms. However, I have not been able to find one that includes etymology. I was also unable to find a definition for "elementary reaction." The book is well illustrated.
