In this [Question about computer science
jargon](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/698/japanese-dictionary-
for-mathematics-computer-science-jargon), most answers to date are electronic
resources and that makes sense.

But I would like to know if there are printed japanese/english or
japanese/german dictionary which gives careful consideration to scientific,
technological and philosophical (analytical, epistemology) meanings of kanjis
without being too difficult to peruse for a non-native learner. I would not be
able to comfortably use a japanese-only reference.

It does not need to be strictly a dictionary. I am interested in printed books
about scientific japanese writing for instance, or specialized documents with
a glossary for that specialty. I remember among other things seing a japanese
colleague with a nice book about german philosophical concepts and their kanji
approximation and translation. I presume there are other such books in areas
such as biology, cognitive sciences, physics, history of science.

resources terminology dictionary
Written resources for scientific and philosophic japanese?
<http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/cgi-bin/wwwjdic.cgi?1C> has many
dictionaries, including some scientific ones.

But you asked for print media...

  * Computer Terms - [English-Japanese / Japanese-English Dictionary of Computer and Data-Processing Terms](http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/0262061147)

  * Chemical & Science - [Japanese-English Chemical Dictionary: Including a Guide to Japanese Patents and Scientific Literature](http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/3527312935)

  * Science and Technical Terms - [Japanese/English - English/Japanese Glossary of Scientific and Technical Terms](http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/0471574635)

There are others, too. Searching Amazon for "japanese english dictionary
scientific" is a good start.

Thanks to the rules here, 2 of those don't get linked. You'll have to copy and
paste.
