Customer Reviews

Excellent dictionary and thesaurus

This is an excellent dictionary and thesaurus.

Very handy

Book is very useful having a two in one saves time on lookin for thesaurus or worrying about where your dictonary is

A must have for all writers and students.

What makes this particular resource so valuable is that each page of the book has the dictionary section on top and the thesaurus section on the bottom. So, if you're looking up the definition of a word you don't have to hunt around in another section of the book for a similar word - it's on the same page.

A College Need!!!!!

Since my classes require lots of in class papers I found this book to be quite helpful. It is not very large and heavy and also includes a thesaurus! I am very glade with my choice!

Great for students and writers- very concise but thorough.

Readable and useful. I have used this with my own children and students - It is nice having a hardbound book with all that is needed in it rather than using 2 volumes. Clear Print and up-to- date
