Cu* nes TECHNOLOGICAL DICTIONARY.—The value
Li an acquaintance with those terms which are peculiar to Sci-
ence or Art is so obvious, that any Work tending to facilitate a
knowledge of them must be regarded as exceedingly useful,
whether to the scientific or the general reader : and the more so
as so general dictionary of our language notices such terms, with
the exception of the more familiar ones. Until these technical
words are completely understood all is mystery and difficulty,
nor can any advance in science be made. The want of some
Work like the present has been long felt, and there is little
doubt but that it will be considered indispensable to every li-
brary. sly many readers it will be found to supersede altoge-
ther the necessity for an Eu yclopxdia, since, by means of this
alone, they will be enabled to Underitarifi, and to refer to, ori-
ginal Works in any Department or Science. A neat and perspi-
cuous view or abstract of each Science is exhibited, in such a
manner as more particularly to illustrate its peculiar vocabulary,
I to initiate the reader in its study.
