The Oxford Thesaurus- An A-Z Dictionary of Synonyms eBook
|
There is an art to a fine thesaurus. It requires a delicate balance of many qualities. When you seek the right word, you want a thesaurus that's useful helpful, fruitful, effective), convenient (handy, expedient, user-friendly), and current (contemporary, informed, up-to-date). The Oxford Thesaurus combines the best of two worlds: an A to Z arrangement of words and a Roget's-style index. The first search is as simple as looking up a word in a dictionary, while the synonym index helps fine-tune the intense lexicographic hunt.
