Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Penguin Hutchinson Reference Suite is a handy CD-ROM comprising the texts of a number of reference resources. You'll find the Hutchinson Encyclopedia (1999), the New Penguin Dictionary of Quotations (1998), the compact Hutchinson Chronology of World History (1998), the Helicon Book of Days (1998), Hutchinson's Internet Dictionary (1998), the 1987 edition of Roget's Thesaurus, the 1994 revision of Eric Partridge's classic guide to English usage Usage and Abusage, and Longman's excellent Dictionary of the English Language, published in 1991, but brought at least partly up to date by the inclusion of the 1998 Hutchinson Dictionary of Computing, Multimedia and the Internet. This gives you the answers to pretty well any general reference questions you are likely to have.

The software runs on Netscape (supplied), so it is easy to link up with the recommended Web sites, and needs only 20 Mb of hard disk space, 486X2 66 CPU and 4x CD-ROM. Once installed and opened, the program can run in the background while you work, and any words you need to check can be dragged and dropped to search for matching entries. You can search any combination of the works or the entire text. The software needs a little time to get used to, but rewards you with a really useful resource for a fraction of the cost of the books. --Julia Cresswell
