Biograhical
Sources in the Sciences
Tracer Bullet 88-3 |
|
This guide offers a systematic approach to the wide variety
of published biographical information on men and women of science.
Both historical and
contemporary scientists are covered, with emphasis on American scientists.
Sources were selected on the basis of general availability through
major public
and institutional library systems. Departing from the usual Tracer Bullet format,
this guide is organized under the following headings: (1) general works,
(2) bibliographies and indexes, (3) selected national sources, (4) subject
sources, arranged by broad disciplines, and (5) pertinent abstracting and
indexing services. Not intended to be a comprehensive bibliography, this Tracer
Bullet is designed--as the name of the series implies--to put the reader "on
target."
