Accessibility and findability of digitized archival resources can be a challenge, particularly for students or researchers not familiar with archival formats and digital interfaces, which adhere to different descriptive standards than more widely familiar library resources. Numerous aggregate archival collection databases exist, which provide a…

An annotated bibliography of books about non-Newtonian physics written by physicists for the lay reader. Organized into three sections: (1) a listing by titles; (2) classification of the books by subject heading; and (3) an annotated bibliography arranged by author. (LZ)

This booklet, part of the United States Atomic Energy Commission's series of information booklets, lists selected commerically published books for the general public on atomic energy and closely related subjects. It includes annotated bibliographies for children (grade level indicated) and adults. The books are arranged by subject, alphabetized by…

This guide offers a systematic approach to the wide variety of published biographical information on men and women of science in the life, earth and physical sciences, primarily from 1989 to 2006, and complements Library of Congress Science Tracer Bullet "TB88-3" ("Biographical Sources in the Sciences," compiled 1988 [ED306074]) and "TB06-7"…

The first of a three part series, this review covers the online bibliographic and numeric databases of physics, mathematics, and computer science. Two database directories are mentioned, and a table listing databases, producers, major subjects, and starting dates is appended. Fifteen references are provided. (EJS)

This Cumulative Index is intended to provide ready reference to all material published in the "American Journal of Physics" in Volumes 1 (1933) to 20 (1952). The Index is subdivided into two parts: an Author Index listing the names of the contributors of papers, notes, letters, book reviews, and abstracts of addresses; and an Analytical…

Presents resource materials and references intended to guide physicists, astronomers, and physics teachers to some of the literature and other teaching aids that deal with new particles. (HM)

Provides a reading list for A- and S-level biology. Contains several experiments and demonstrations with topics on: the intestine, bullock corneal cells, valences, the science of tea, automated hydrolysis, electronics characteristics, bromine diffusion, enthalpy of vaporization determination, thermometers, pendulums, hovercraft, Bernoulli fluid…

Lists references from biographical dictionaries, encyclopedias, books, and periodical literature that deal with the scientific achievements of women in the areas of physics and astronomy. This bibliography indicates where material can be located on the lives and contributions of these women scientists. (CS)

This annotated bibliography identifies over 140 books, essays, and newsletters which are concerned with the convergence of the sciences with parapsychology. Most entries were published since 1950 although some date back to the early 1900s. Entries are presented alphabetically by author within four categories: psychological-metaphysical critiques…

An annotated bibliography of astronomy books is presented. These books (most of which are designed for research astronomers and graduate students) demand substantial background in astronomy and physics. Nontechnical books are reviewed in part I (SE 537 910). (JN)

Reviews six books dealing with geology, physics, and space. (AEA)

Presents an annotated list of nontechnical astronomy books in these categories: amateur astronomy; children's books; cosmology; galaxies; general astronomy; history of astronomy; life in the universe; physics and astronomy; pseudoscience; quasars and active galaxies; solar system; space exploration; stars/stellar evolution; sun; astronomy…

This document lists annotated references of gender issues in physics and science education. (KHR)

The purpose of this resource letter is to provide an overview of research on the learning and teaching of physics. The references have been selected to meet the needs of two groups of physicists engaged in physics education. The first is the growing number whose field of scholarly inquiry is (or might become) physics education research. The second…
