Dictionary
of Scientific Terms in Plant Protection
(English: Arabic - Arabic: English)
|
|
The Arab Society for Plant Protection, in an effort to unify
Arabic scientific terms in plant protection issued recently
the "Dictionary of Scientific Terms in Plant Protection".
This volume includes around 10,000 scientific terms, where
the user can seek the translation he needs starting with either
the Arabic or the English term. This is an effort of six years
of voluntary hard work by a large number of dedicated scientists
organized in a number of specialized committees (Nematology,
Entomology, Mycology, Virology, Pesticides and Weed Science)
that worked together to do the translation, and more importantly
to agree on a unified Arabic translation for each term. This
what makes this dictionary different from the already existing
ones prepared by either individuals or few authors. This effort
was culminated in a meeting held in October, 2003, where around
50 scientists from eight Arab countries met in a two days
workshop hosted by Omar El-Mokhtar University, El-Beida, Libya,
to discuss and finalize this work. This dictionary was Prepared
and Published by Arab Society for Plant Protection; and Printed
and Distributed by Dar Innahda Al-Arabiya, Beirut, Lebanon.
770 pages, 18x25 cm, hard cover. Price 15 US$.
