Book Description

Excerpt from The Mining World Index of Current Literature, Vol. 6: Last Half Year As in previous volumes of The Mining World Index of Current Literature, the worlds literature on mining, metallurgy and kindred subjects is covered in Volume VI. In this index will be found in classified form all articles appearing in periodical magazines published in America, Europe, Africa and Australia on mining, engineering, metallurgy, mining geology, mineralogy, etc.; also the valuable publications of the worlds mineral industries, institutes and affiliated engineering and technical societies, as well as publications of the Federal and State Geological Surveys and Mining Bureaus at home and abroad - not to mention new books. All these are indexed by a simple plan, easily understood. By the system of cross-indexing adopted one can readily find what is wanted on any mining or affiliated subject. In this volume it will be noted that in nearly all entries a brief digest is given, an added feature that will no doubt be fully appreciated. Where there is more than one author the first named appears in the alphabetical arrangement; the other or others will be found by referring to the authors index. In the search for some particular article covering a certain subject, it should be remembered that where reference of any importance is made in that article to more than one subject, the article will also be indexed under that subject as well. This reference may be but a few lines in length, but these lines may contain the information sought. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
