Excerpt from A Popular Guide to the Terms of Art and Science The object of this little work is to enable a non-professional or non-scientific person readily to accomplish two things, to find the technical terms used in the arts and sciences by merely knowing the popular words relating thereto, and to translate into popular language technical terms which he may meet with but not understand. For example, by turning to the word "Plants," he will learn that the name of the science which relates to plants is "Botany," and he will find brought together all the important terms that express the structure, growth, origin, classification, etc., of plants. So, if one should happen upon the unfamiliar term "Xylography," and desire to learn its meaning, he has only to consult the index to ascertain the page upon which the definition of the wood-engraver's art may be found. In these respects lies its difference from a dictionary, which only undertakes to deal with single and separate terms, alphabetically arranged, and does not exhibit any portion of the terminology of an art or a science collected together, which is attempted here. In this work the veriest novice can find both the terms and the definitions relating to a science, whereas in a dictionary he could find only the definitions of terms already known to him. The index contains, in strict alphabetical order, the names of the several arts and sciences, and of all the terms connected with them, whether technical or popular, so that the first place to look for anything is in the index. The author here takes occasion to acknowledge his indebtedness to Mr. Charles E. Illsley, of Washington, D. C., for valuable services rendered in the compilation of this work.
