TECHNICAL TERMS 13 
use scientific language. I hear and read a good 
deal of silly palaver about simple language as con- 
trasted with technical terms. Well, technical terms 
can be overdone, but they have their uses, and we 
must try to understand them and use them as 
occasion demands. If you have any difficulty in 
understanding any terms that I use, please refer to 
the Glossary which I append to this volume ; in it 
you will find a lot of terms defined and explained.
