To this Eighth Edition of the late Mr William Gardner‘s Chemical Synonyms and trade Names there have been added some 3,300 new entries, principally in the field of plastics, alloys and pharmaceuticals. A number of entries describing products known to the Editors to be no longer commercially available have been deleted, with the principal object of keeping the bulk of the book within reasonable bounds; but it has been possible to add nearly 400 names to the Index of Manufacturers to be found at the end of the book. The sum of these additions and deletions represents a net increase of about 10 per cent, in the scope of this Eighth Edition as compared with its predecessor published in 1971.

An ingenious system for creating work for workers, wealth for the wealthy, and poverty for the poor.You can learn what you have to say only by listening when you speak.Perceptions: n. pl.

Aphorisms for the Uncommon Reader

In September 1963 President Kennedy commissions intelligence officer Tom Grant to ferret out stolen gold and other treasure that vanished while in the hands of Nazi army officials.Grant soon discovers that nothing in his training at Langley and Fort Benning could adequately prepare him to deal with the deceitful minds and extreme dangers that lie ahead of him. He is caught in a web of intrigue and paranoia as he infiltrates the Iron Curtain. Encountering menacing characters at every turn, he is convinced that ex-Nazis and Communist assassins are following him. Throughout this roller-coaster story, Grant meets and sidesteps perils that nearly destroy him. Only at the thrilling conclusion, when he uncovers dirty little secrets of the Third Reich, does he fully comprehend the gravity of his precarious situation.
