Nowhere are the neologisms coined more quickly or the technical vocabulary expanding at a faster rate than in the fields of science, engineering and technology. Following the systematic evaluation of international specialist publications, the editors of this "Encyclopedia" have compiled, defined and alphabetically listed approximately 800,000 abbreviations. Included in the 17 volumes are two supplementary and seven reverse volumes.

This review is from: International Encyclopedia of Abbreviations and Acronyms of Science and Technology (Hardcover)
This book was published in 1995. Today, a decade later, it is unclear why the book should be published today in hardcover form. Something like this is far better suited in CD format, or, even better, as a website. The latter could then have links to the websites of the organisations it listed. Obviously. Plus, as a website, it could have far richer keyword searching than in book form.Some types of reference material, like this, are really no longer optimal as books. Beside, $2380 for the book?! Totally overvalued.
