Reviews"I think this is great and really enjoyed the humorous asides in some of the descriptions. The dictionary is exceptionally clear and well written, and the directions to look at similar and contrasting ideas are of great value. The examples were refreshing to read and make terms more relevant to students." - Roz Brody, Brighton, Hove and Sussex Sixth Form College, UK
