Glenn D. Considine is the editor of Van Nostrand's Scientific Encyclopedia, 9th Edition, published by Wiley.
"...continues its tradition of excellence maintained through six and a half decades"(The Chemical Educator, Vol.9 No. 4, 2004) Mentioned in a story about snow entitled "Did You Know?" Definition of why snow is white is attributed to the Encyclopedia (News-Sentinel Koxville, TN, December 5, 2003) "...retains the look, feel, and scope of earlier editions...for two-year and undergraduate institutions, Van Nostrand is essential..." (Choice, Vol. 40, No. 4, December 2002) "...still one of the best concise encyclopedias for the sciences." (Library Journal Reviews, April 1, 2003) "...this is a very resourceful product which provides much information in a condensed manner...the price is very affordable...for those teaching and studying integrated science, this encyclopedia is a must." (The American Biology Teacher, Vol. 65, No. 2, February 2003) "It is the best place to begin with encompassing the vast innovations of the science...the best reference for initial consultation and orientation." (Word Trade) "...extensively updated since the last volume...and it is an amazing accomplishment...not only does it cover an enormous range of topics...it does so thoroughly and descriptively...almost lyrical in its coverage..." (Journal of the American Chemical Society , Vol. 125, No. 12, 2003)
