If you need ten year old definitions and maps, this is hands-down the best manual around. This book is a lot like Urban Dictionary, but more boring and less swearing! Between the standard fare of dictionary definitions and thesaurus synonyms, it has maps of various world bits in full color. IN FULL COLOR! How awesome is that? No partial color, grayscale, or (gasp) lineart only for these maps, no sir.

Long story short: definition business in the front, synonym party in the back.

My copy of this book is falling apart and filled with highlights, underlines, and notes. Really got me through a tough time in high school, and will always have a very special place in my heart.

Search Please

I bought this to have a dictionary downloaded since I am often without an internet connection. The search feature is so lousy it's basically unusable. Paging through until you get to a word is no picnic. I suppose this would be worth buying if you just want to read a dictionary.

An odd book to have yes, but a book I use quite frequently. I have yet to read it all(a personal goal) but in time I will.

Helpful and convenient

Super version of hardcopy of this dictionary. This convenient medium enables more frequent use of a well-established resource. Very helpful.
