CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 85^th edition

This edition features a foreward by author Oliver Sacks, a free facsimile of the 1913 first edition of the Handbook, and thumb tabs that make it easier to locate particular data. New tables in this edition include Index of Refraction of Inorganic Crystals, upper and lower axeotropic data for binary mixtures, critical solution temperatures of polymer solutions, and density of solvents as a function of temperature. Several tables omitted from recent editions are back. The Fundamental Physical Constants section has been updated with the latest CODATA/NIST values, and the Mathematical Tables appendix now features several new sections that include orthogonal polynomials Clebsch-Gordon coefficients.
