description: 'The Compendium is popularly referred to as the "Gold Book", in recognition
  of the contribution of the late Victor Gold, who initiated work on the first edition.
  It is one of the series of IUPAC "Colour Books" on chemical nomenclature, terminology,
  symbols and units (see the list of source documents), and collects together terminology
  definitions from IUPAC recommendations already published in Pure and Applied Chemistry
  and in the other Colour Books.


  Terminology definitions published by IUPAC are drafted by international committees
  of experts in the appropriate chemistry sub-disciplines, and ratified by IUPAC''s
  Interdivisional Committee on Terminology, Nomenclature and Symbols (ICTNS). In this
  edition of the Compendium these IUPAC-approved definitions are supplemented with
  some definitions from ISO and from the International Vocabulary of Basic and General
  Terms in Metrology; both these sources are recognised by IUPAC as authoritative.
  The result is a collection of nearly 7000 terms, with authoritative definitions,
  spanning the whole range of chemistry.'
