The Encyclopedia of Lunar Science includes the latest topical data, definitions, and explanations of the many and varied facets of lunar science. This will be a very useful reference work for a broad audience, not limited to the professional lunar scientist: general astronomers, researchers, theoreticians, practitioners, graduate students, undergraduate students, and astrophysicists as well as geologists and engineers. The title will include all current areas of lunar science, with the topic entries being established tertiary literature. The work will be a readable but technically suitable to most advanced undergraduate and graduate students. The articles will include topics of varying technical levels so that the top scientists of the field will find this work a benefit as well the graduate students and the budding lunar scientist. A few examples of topic areas are as follows: Astronomers and Astronauts, Basaltic Volcanism, Lunar Chemistry, Time and Motion Coordinates, Cosmic Weathering through Meteoritic Impact, Environment, Geology, Geologic History, Impacts and Impact Processes, Lunar Surface Processes, Origin and Evolution Theories, Regolith, Stratigraphy, Tectonic Activity, Topography, Weathering through ionizing radiation from the solar wind, solar flares, and cosmic rays.

Contains 560 alphabetically arranged articles on the geological sciences. Includes maps, tables, graphs, and diagrams.

Following in the footsteps of the earlier editions, hundreds of the most respected scientists and engineers participated in the creation of this new edition, including many Nobel Laureates. The articles are in-depth, yet accessible, and address all of the key areas of physical science--including aeronautics, astronomy, chemistry, communications, computers, earth sciences, electronics, engineering, materials science, mathematics, nuclear technology, physics, power systems, propulsion, and space technology.

This encyclopedia presents physics by emphasising the sports and not the science, with scientific information being interwoven with sports facts and stories. Aimed at students with an interest in sports and an aversion to science it introduces them to physical, biological, medical and scientific principles.

Features more than seven thousand entries covering topics, terms, and concepts in math, science, and technology.

Whether it's the planet, the petri dish or the platform, this reference attempts to shed some light on the subject. It includes over 10,000 entries and many articles describing discoveries and ground-breaking experiments and is fully cross-referenced.

Alphabetically organized scientific encyclopedia.
