Editorial note — A SHORT LIST OF SCIENTIFIC BOOKS
Reading edition
This book contains a dictionary plus a book advertisements section. The punctation has been homogenized in the dictionary but not in the advertisements. The spelling of some names in the dictionary can differ between the French/English part and the English/French part; this has not been fixed. An alphabetical index was added in the Contents section for the reader's comfort.
The following typos have been fixed in the dictionary:
p55: corrected “concassés” into “concassées” (“Route en pierres concassées”)
p68: corrected “Rétard” into “Retard” (“Retard à l'allumage.”)
In the advertisements section, for the two book entries “Steel Bar and Plate Tables.”, L and T were set in bold, instead of a distinct font.
