Reviews
‘Comprehensive coverage of technical vocabulary for cross-curricular study is complemented by 10,000 word origins, synonyms to build vocabulary and pronunciation guides.’ Books Magazine
‘Design: Small print, but easy to use with a clear presentation. Accessibility: Fairly straightforward definitions – not a word is wasted. Content: Fifty thousand words in one fat book. Good emphasis on word origins and a helpful usage guide. Verdict: Less attractive than the Oxford School Dictionary, but good value for money. Times Educational Supplement
‘Robust and compact, it is comprehensive enough for most purposes. A reliable word companion.’ Books for Keeps
