CHOICE Review

Increasingly multilingual societies such as the US need bilingual dictionaries. Kaplan, author of English-Spanish dictionaries in psychology and law, now offers another in electrical and computer engineering. The book contains approximately 50,000 entries in each language, providing the Spanish equivalents of English terms without any definition and vice versa. In cases where there are two or more equivalents, only the most widely known term is used; for example, the Spanish term "bucle" is used instead of "lazo" or "ciclo" for the concept of "loop" in English. The other equivalents appear alphabetically in the Spanish section. A helpful preface discusses the criteria for inclusion or exclusion of terms. Recent related works include Olivetti English-Spanish Dictionary of Computer Science (1992) and Sergio Sobredo's English-Spanish, Spanish-English Dictionary of Electronics, Computers and Industrial Instrumentation Abbreviations and Acronyms (1986). Kaplan's dictionary is more up-to-date, covering nearly all the essential words, phrases, and idiomatic expressions in this field, and will be a basic engineering reference source for academic libraries.
