The 1.1 Books and journals as the core ofscholarly publishing. Printed-and-bound front matter presents information about a book's title, publisher, and books and journals and their electronic counterparts constitute the copyright; it acknowledges debts to the work of others; it provides a core ofscholarly publishing. Book-length works in particular-in their way to navigate the structure of the book; and it introduces the book breadth and variety, not to mention their long history-provide an over­ and sets its tone. The text proper comprises the narrative-including view ofthe anatomyofa scholarlyworkthat, inconjunctionwiththe dis­ arguments, data, illustrations, and so forth-often divided into chap­ cussion ofjournals (see 1.72-110), can be usefully applied to other types ters and other meaningful sections.

  • End-Of-Line Hyphenation of Chemical Names (IUPAC Provisional
    Pure Appl. Chem. 2020; aop IUPAC Recommendations Albert J. Dijkstra*, Karl-Heinz Hellwich, Richard M. Hartshorn, Jan Reedijk and Erik Szabó End-of-line hyphenation of chemical names (IUPAC Provisional Recommendations) https://doi.org/10.1515/pac-2019-1005 Received October 16, 2019; accepted January 21, 2020 Abstract: Chemical names and in particular systematic chemical names can be so long that, when a manu- script is printed, they have to be hyphenated/divided at the end of a line. Many systematic names already contain hyphens, but sometimes not in a suitable division position. In some cases, using these hyphens as end-of-line divisions can lead to illogical divisions in print, as can also happen when hyphens are added arbi- trarily without considering the ‘chemical’ context. The present document provides recommendations and guidelines for authors of chemical manuscripts, their publishers and editors, on where to divide chemical names at the end of a line and instructions on how to avoid these names being divided at illogical places as often suggested by desk dictionaries. Instead, readability and chemical sense should prevail when authors insert optional hyphens. Accordingly, the software used to convert electronic manuscripts to print can now be programmed to avoid illogical end-of-line hyphenation and thereby save the author much time and annoy- ance when proofreading. The recommendations also allow readers of the printed article to determine which end-of-line hyphens are an integral part of the name and should not be deleted when ‘undividing’ the name. These recommendations may also prove useful in languages other than English.

  • Special Catalogue 21
    Special Catalogue 21 Marbling OAK KNOLL BOOKS www.oakknoll.com 310 Delaware Street, New Castle, DE 19720 Special Catalogue 21 includes 54 items covering the history, traditions, methods, and extraordinary variety of the art of marbling. From its early origins in China and Japan to its migration to Turkey in the 15th century and Europe in the late 16th and early 17th centuries, marbling is the most colorful and fanciful aspect of book design. It is usually created without regard to the content of the book it decorates, but sometimes, as in the glorious work of Nedim Sönmez (items 39-44), it IS the book. I invite you to luxuriate in the wonderful examples and fascinating writings about marbling contained in these pages. As always, please feel free to browse our inventory online at www.oakknoll.com. Oak Knoll Books was founded in 1976 by Bob Fleck, a chemical engineer by training, who let his hobby get the best of him. Somehow, making oil refineries more efficient using mathematics and computers paled in comparison to the joy of handling books. Oak Knoll Press, the second part of the business, was established in 1978 as a logical extension of Oak Knoll Books. Today, Oak Knoll Books is a thriving company that maintains an inventory of about 25,000 titles. Our main specialties continue to be books about bibliography, book collecting, book design, book illustration, book selling, bookbinding, bookplates, children’s books, Delaware books, fine press books, forgery, graphic arts, libraries, literary criticism, marbling, papermaking, printing history, publishing, typography & type specimens, and writing & calligraphy — plus books about the history of all of these fields.

The original edition of the English translation is a beautifully designed volume. The reissued edition features a blindingly white coated paper, and a puzzling insistence by Esri on using comically oversized Times New Roman typeface. The illustrations, however, have been better reproduced (and in some cases enhanced) from the earlier version.
