Subject Index 



General. Appendix 1 of this volume contains an alphabetical list of symbols, letter groups, and abbreviations, with 

 their short titles. These features are therefore omitted from the subject inde.x. 



Rules Followed in Making up this Index. All principal words in the part headings, chapter headings, section headings, 

 and te.xt — and in some cases the figure captions and table headings — are included in the subject index. In general, this 

 takes in nouns and adjectives but not verbs, adverbs, prepositions, and articles. 



Abbreviations. To make the entries as descriptive and useful as possible, yet to keep them concise, abbreviations or 

 short forms are employed, where necessary, for words that are familiar and frequently used. Plurals are formed by adding 

 the customary "s" and "es" to the shortened nouns.
