A great resource. It doesn't have every single word and expression you're going to want to look up, but it does have most of them. Much more comprehensive than others I've used. It's also built to last -- today, after being brought out of retirement and being in constant use for 4 days, the front cover of my paperback edition finally fell off - but neatly, so it could be taped back on.
Ok, so it's not up to date.. neither is my French! It works just fine for the limited amount of French I encounter living near Quebec (mostly Canadian products).
