Journal titles, foreign language journals

Cite journals published in a foreign language either by the actual non-English title or by a translated form. 

The almost 10,000 references are indexed at the end of the book and include the title of the cited book, book section, chapter, journal or review article. The titles of seminal papers written in a foreign language were translated to English. The name of the author of a specific synthetic example was chosen as the one having an asterisk in the reference. 

Titles of journal articles are included in the references, but they have been truncated, dropping words like analysis, determination, quantitative, trace, new, improved, and so on. Whenever possible, hard-to-get references are omitted in favor of those more recent or more easily obtained. Since about half the copies of the first edition were sold outside the United States, I have taken steps to make the book more useful worldwide by including foreign-language references and translating units of measure as necessary. ISO standards are referenced when available.
