Publisher Comments:

A Barron's bestseller for years, this book is better than ever in a brand new fourth edition. In addition to its standard vocabulary lists, this edition includes a new section called Panorama of Words. In this feature, each of the 1100 words appears in a sentence selected from among well known novels, plays, poems, and even newspaper editorials and TV broadcasts. The book is a vocabulary builder aimed directly at college-bound high school students, as well as college students who need extra vocabulary help. Students will find word lists with definitions, analogy exercises, entertaining word games, and fascinating words-in-context exercises.

    allooo!, June 13, 2006 (view all comments by allooo!)
    I find this collection of vocabulary tantalizing in every aspect of the word. This book has expanded my vocabulary immensly, I recommended to anyone desiring to outsmart someone in a battle of the words. Believe you me, I had a battle of words recently, and by the end of the challenge (if you could even call it a challenge), my compettitor ran home in tears because I had pummeled them with my words. If you want to be like me, then I strongly recommend you purchase this book.
