Review: Not Exhaustive, but still a powerful tool in your tool-box - A writer's tool-box needs many different tools in it to cover every eventuality. This little book has quickly become a go-to resource that I would not be without while I write and edit my work. Frequently I find myself supplementing it with other resources, but that is alright. This little book has managed to answer many questions for me. Used sensibly and alongside other resources such as a decent dictionary it is valuable addition to my resuorces that I would not be without. I highly recommend it. Review: ... be rather bulky to carry around but I was pleased when it arrived (very quick delivery) as it is ... - I was a bit concerned as this was only available in hardback and I thought it may be rather bulky to carry around but I was pleased when it arrived (very quick delivery) as it is small enough for the handbag. At a glance it looks very much like a bible or prayer book (size). the contents are terrific, everything a writer needs, when sat writing for several hours even the simplest of words can, suddenly, become totally foreign to the brain. This book sorts it out without a quibble. My only gripe is that it is rather expensive for what it is. ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 95,790 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 427 in Dictionaries & Thesauri 1,630 in Words, Language & Grammar (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 227 Reviews | ## Images ![New Oxford Dictionary for Writers and Editors - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61F6frHBUIL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not Exhaustive, but still a powerful tool in your tool-box *by S***P on 14 July 2020* A writer's tool-box needs many different tools in it to cover every eventuality.
