'With definitions for more than 64,000 words and phrases it is one of the largest single-volume dictionaries on the market. It is also one of the liveliest with a variety of content to enliven the page...this edition of the Bloomsbury comes across as a book you would want to dip into, which is quite an achievement for a dictionary.'
