This is again a small pocket sized book, it is ideal for students of BSL at level 1 and 2, possibly higher, i am using it at college mostly but it is great. It contains a good range of modern signs and is usefull, also a good price.

An OK book
It's an OK dictionary but lacks some basic words - I wouldn't particularly say it was for beginners.

Handy dictionary.
Handy size to carry around in handbag, rucksack or briefcase or even pocket. It is what it say it is - a beginners guide - so not comprehensive. Read more
