Hardcover ISBN: 9780128156148,   eBook ISBN: 9780128156155
Note: This is the most comprehensive handbook, and might be a standard for scientists from different disciplines, but too large and expensive for casual reading and with a strong focus on economy and management.

(different editions in different languages)

A classic, but still interesting to read
