Description

Physically Speaking: A Dictionary of Quotations on Physics and Astronomy provides the largest published collection of quotations pertaining to physics and astronomy. Some quotes are profound, others are wise, some are witty but none are frivolous. Here you will find quotations from the most famous to the unknown. The extensive author and subject indexes provide you with the perfect tool for locating quotations for practical use or pleasure, and you will soon enjoy discovering what others have said on topics ranging from anti-matter to x-rays.

This book can be read for pleasure or used as a handy reference by students, scientific readers, and the more general reader who is interested in who has said what on physics and astronomy.


Reviews

"The book contains a wealth of information. One finds quotations that one reads for one's own amusement, and one feels the urge to use again and again. ... this book is bound to become successful because of the riches of its contents."
-The Chemical Intelligencer

"This book is an especially delightful anthology of quotations ... Poetry, humor, history, fact, and wisdom are found here on every page ... The book merits the strongest recommendation and will probably encourage its readers to look for Statistically Speaking, an earlier work by the same authors."
-School Science Review
