Publisher's introduction

Dar Academia presents to Arabic readers this series of scientific pocket dictionaries, which we hope will fill a void in the Arabic library.

This series, consisting of five dictionaries: mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, and computers, aims to provide the Arab reader - especially university and high school students - with access to these subjects based on their original references in English and French.

Each of these dictionaries contains hundreds of basic terms, with an accurate scientific definition for each term. It was co-authored in English by a group of scholars in the reference dictionary department at Collins Publishing House in Britain. It resembled simplified encyclopedic dictionaries in which the student and teacher found what they needed from unknown terms or whose definitions fell short of providing their correct meanings.

Just as the work of the authors was unique in terms of being precise in expression and selection, so the work of the translators and reviewers was distinctive in terms of selecting the Arabic and French interviews, which we intended to be as easy, simple, and understandable as possible, so as not to add to the difficulty of the material with linguistic difficulty, thus making the matter more complicated for the researcher. About interpretation and clarification.

Therefore, we have always sought the easiest and clearest terms when there is more than one synonym for one term, but without deviating from the previously mentioned translations, either approved by language academies, or have become commonly used in Arabic scientific books and journals.

The fruit of this effort was this series of five dictionaries, which can be described as unique in the Arab world. Perhaps the most important thing about it is that it makes it easier for the Arab reader - and the student in particular - to keep up with the latest scientific and technological developments and achievements, relying on their original sources, even if he suffers from a weak grasp of the vocabulary of the subject he is researching. The explanations attached to each entry in the dictionary help him in this.

“Pocket scientific dictionaries” are a special educational tool designed to help students, professors, and general readers understand science and technology in today’s world, and to use them correctly based on the accuracy of the choice of word and clarity of meaning.
