(Electronic Design Online, June 14, 2005) "…this is an excellent, well-done dictionary that should be in any science and technology collection." (American Reference Books Annual, 2005) “…readable and concise…a useful basic reference text…” (Reference Reviews, Vol.18, No.6, September 2004) "By using traditional print sources and Internet sources the compiler has created a comprehensive and up-to-date dictionary…should be very useful for engineers, researchers, and students in these and related fields."
