Review :
'An eclectic combination of formats, with tables, review articles, directory information, and a very extensive plastics glossary, this book contains some well-written initial review articles. The work's major portion, the section of alphabetical entries, is more extensive than comparable works like Whittington's Dictionary of Plastics (3rd ed., CH, Apr'94). The work is recommended for materials science and engineering collections, at the undergraduate level and above.' Choice, 38:8 (April 2001)
