The second edition of Quantities, Units and Symbols in Physical Chemistry (ISBN 0-632-03583-8), also known as the Green Book, establishing standards for nomenclature in chemistry.
The green books are direct successors to the "Manual of Symbols and Terminology for Physicochemical Quantities and Units" prepared for publication on behalf of the Physical Chemistry Division of IUPAC by M. L. McGlashen in 1969. A full history of the 'Green Books" is provided in the historical Introduction to the 3rd Edition. The 2nd edition has been available online as a PDF file, and the third edition will be available as a pdf one year after publication.

An Introduction to Spectroscopy Techniques and Their Applications in Analysis

 Spectroscopy is the study of the interaction between matter and electromagnetic radiation. It is a technique used to analyze the composition and structure of matter by examining how light or other electromagnetic radiation is absorbed, emitted, or scattered by that matter. A spectrometer is an instrument used to measure spectra. It can split light into its constituent wavelengths and measure the intensity at each wavelength.  A spectrophotometer is a specific type of spectrometer that measures the intensity of light as a function of wavelength. It can be used to measure the absorption, transmission, or reflection of light. A spectroscope is a simple spectrometer used to observe spectral lines and bands. It usually consists of a prism or diffraction grating to disperse light and view a spectrum. A spectrograph is a spectroscope that can record the spectrum onto a photographic plate or detector. It produces a spectral graph or spectrogram. Spectra refers to the characteristic pattern
