As one who appreciates using words that are not the "same ol' thing" and learning new ones whenever I can, I am enjoying greatly just reading through this book and checking out various words. In fact, I often spend time reading about words other than the ones I was originally researching.

Delaying the death of American English.

This book has over 6000 words and all of them are fun and interesting. It is like a huge match game since some words are synonyms of others. All you have to do is read the words and then find the matching ones.I have been using this book for several years (this one is my second) and I find it helpful when someone is trying to be an erudite logophile.

Absolutly fun dictionary to have on your coffee table for friends and family to go through! I love discovering new words.

Great product for a great price.. Thanks !!

Good vocabulary book.

I'm in love again.

Gave it as a gift to someone who loves arcane words. It was a big hit!
