Review
...What I think I like most [about this edition] is quite simply its authority, which comes from both its age and the constant revisions... This publication has a long and honorable track record... Ive had a copy since my undergraduate days and its easily the most consistently useful single source of information I have. ...Unequivocal recommendation for the library...a personal copy is a thoroughly worthwhile and long-lasting investment. ...A scientific must-have.
Martin Preston, Dept. or Earth and Ocean Sciences, University of Liverpool, UK, in Physical Sciences Educational Reviews, Vol. 7, issue 1 (on the 86th Edition)

In our view, this is a well written and beautifully presented handbook, reasonably priced, and houses a diverse range of data and information required by professionals. The data contained within this edition is concise, consistent, and reliable, in-line with the aim of the Handbook. It is, in our opinion, a prerequisite for any investigational research in the physical sciences...

Regardless of user preferences for print, online, or CD-ROM formats, what really matters is the phenomenal content of the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics. Summing Up: Highly recommended.
S. Korolev, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, in Choice Magazine, October 2007, Vol. 45, no. 2 (on the 88th Edition)

The ultimate book of facts about chemistry and physics. This is a book that covers virtually every element, every physical formula, and every mathematical table imaginable. It is hard to imagine any library, laboratory, or university that doesnt have a copy.
