Resumen: "This dictionary was originally derived from the Concise Science Dictionary, first published by Oxford University Press in 1984 (seventh edition, retitled A Dictionary of Science, 2017). It consisted of all the entries relating to chemistry in that dictionary, including those on physical chemistry, as well as many of the terms used in biochemistry. Subsequent editions included special feature articles on important topics as well as several chronologies tracing the history of some topics and short biographical entries on the chemists and other scientists who have been responsible for the development of the subject. For this eighth edition the text has been fully revised and updated, with some entries being substantially expanded. In addition, almost 200 new entries have been added covering all branches of the subject. The coverage of certain fields-in particular organic chemistry, biochemistry, and environmental chemistry, has been expanded to take account of the most recent developments"--

A Dictionary of Chemistry is a popular and authoritative guide to all aspects of its discipline. With over 5,000 entries, its broad coverage includes physical chemistry and biochemistry, and is heavily informed by the most current research. For this eighth edition, the Dictionary has been fully revised, making it the most up-to-date reference work of its kind. Almost 200 entirely new entries have been added, including bioethanol, genome, molecular spintronics, oganesson, phosphorylation, and reticular chemistry. Areas such as analytical chemistry, environmental chemistry, and organic chemistry have been expanded to reflect recent developments in the field. The dictionary's supplementary material has also been enhanced as new diagrams provide readers with useful visual aids, and the appendices have been substantially updated. All web links have been revised and updated, and are easily accessible via the companion website.
