Plenty of vocabulary here to enlarge one's own or to use when a writer need a different way of saying the same thing. It is sensibly arranged so that a word can be found in seconds and then the reader gets several sections of slightly different meanings, each with its own synonyms and headed by a brief example of use with an indication as to which meanings are standard, informal or literary. This last feature is indispensable for a student of English who doesn't want to sound like Milton or a slang-using teenager! For example: under "see" are 10 meanings ending with "he's seeing someone else now" as "'go out with, date, take out, be involved with' and informal 'go steady with', and the dated word 'court.' What more does one need? But I have a slight niggle about the sturdiness of the book itself: it is quite fat and feels slightly as though it might come apart. I will update in a few months/weeks!
