This book brings together about 2,500 quotations on various topics
of interest to scientists and engineers, including students of STEM
disciplines. Careful curation of the material by the editor
provides the reader with far greater value than can be obtained by
searching the internet. The quotes have been selected for various
attributes including: importance of topic, depth of insight, and -
not least - wit, with many of them satisfying all these criteria.
To make sequential reading of the quotes more engaging, they are
grouped into broad topical sections, and the entries within each
section are organized thematically, forming quasi-continuous
narrative threads. The text and authorship of each quote have been
carefully verified, and the most popular cases of misquotation and
misattribution are noted. The book represents a valuable resource
for those writing science and engineering articles as well as being
a joy to read in its own right.
