'V As books of reference, these works will be found the motel
useful in the language. The object of the Technological Dic.
tionary is not to supersede the use of an encyclopedia, but to define I
briefly and perspicuously all the terms used in the arts and sciences,
elucidated, wherever the subject requires it. as in botany,
heraldry, mechanics, &c. by ems or plates. A synoptical view
is also given of each science, under which its terminology is classed
and explained.
In like manner, the Historical Dictionary is not intended to
supply the place of biographical and geographical works, but to
furnish. in a convenient term, a vast mass of information, which
would in vain be sought for from such sources, although much re-
quired both by the historical student and the general reader.
