французский, немецкий, русский, испанский (2-е издание).
The publication of a second edition of the INTERNATIONAL DICTIONARY
OF PHYSICS AND ELECTRONICS within less than five years of the
publication of the first edition has been made desirable by the
rapid progress in some of the fields of physics and electronics.
The breakdown of parity conservation, the growth of hydromagnetics
and other forms of fluid mechanics, the completion of more powerful
accelerators, the rapid application of transistors and the
increased quality and quantity of computers are examples of the
many changes that result in the introduction of new terms and
modifications in the meaning of old ones.
Another new feature of the Second Edition is the group of
multilingual indices, in French, German, Spanish and Russian. They
have been added to meet the ever-growing use and importance of the
foreign literature.
