Book Description
Spanish is one of the most widely-spoken languages in the world, and there is extensive lexical variation between its numerous dialects. This book, the first of its kind, focuses uniquely on the origin, diversity, and geographic distribution of portions of the lexicon. The hundreds of words analysed – related to food, clothing, vehicles, and certain miscellaneous items – provide a representative study not only of the many etymological routes by which they have entered the Spanish language over time, but of the considerable diatopic variety which they display across the different Spanish-speaking nations and regions. Representative maps are provided to illustrate several instances of these astounding dialectal differences. This variation is also discussed in terms of its evident link to the historical developments of Spanish. Providing a compelling overview of lexical variety in the Spanish-speaking world, this book will interest anyone who wants to delve into the richness of this fascinating language.

Book Description
Covering the entire spectrum of Arabic manuscripts, and especially the handwritten book, this book consists of a glossary of technical terms and a bibliography. The technical terms, collected from a variety of sources, embrace a vast range of topics dealing with the making and reading (studying) of Arabic manuscripts. They include: the Arabic scripts, penmanship, writing materials and implements, the make-up of the codex, copying and correction, decoration and bookbinding. A similar coverage is reflected in the bibliography. In view of the fact that, as yet, there is no concise monograph on Arabic manuscripts in the English language, this book is an important contribution to this field. And, since Arabic manuscripts represent an enormous resource for research, this work is an indispensable reference for all students of Islamic civilization.

Book Description
LIBRARYSPEAK An Up-to-Date Glossary of 2500 Terms Used in Librarianship And Information Management Librarians now need to understand the terms used by the Information Technology specialists who work in libraries; and IT specialists need to learn the technical terms used by librarians. LibrarySpeak provides simple definitions for all the terms required for each group of library workers to understand the others. It is designed as an accessible and convenient quick reference for students, new library staff, and even old hands as they encounter new terminology. Existing glossaries and dictionaries generally focus on library science or computing, rarely a combination. And they are usually large, heavy, detailed, and expensive. LibrarySpeak provides students especially with an economical, light but comprehensive volume that they can carry with them to class, and get the general idea of specialized vocabulary as they encounter it. LibrarySpeak is an up-to-date glossary of 2500 librarianship and information management terms used especially in North America. It defines and explains essential terminology of library collections, equipment, automated systems, the Internet, and national and international organizations and programs. This is a reference book that should be in the hands of every library student (professional and paraprofessional), and every library and library classroom should have at least one copy. It is also useful for training school media center staff, including in-service training and continuing professional development. Author: Mary Mortimer is a librarian, library and Internet trainer, author, and multimedia developer. She has managed libraries and taught for many years, and has consulted widely with colleagues and students in compiling this glossary.

Every profession has its own language. Education is no exception and like other professions, the language of education is often incomprehensible to those outside the field. This book is the author's attempt to explain in everyday language the esoteric terms, expressions, and buzzwords used in U.S. education today.--[from preface].
