The Penguin Concise Thesaurus - Softcover

Arranged in an easy-to-use A-Z form, THE NEW PENGUIN CONCISE THESAURUS offers a vast selection of synonyms for a whole host of words, ranging from the everyday to the comparatively esoteric and from standard vocabulary to contemporary slang and jargon ('e-tailer', 'chill out'). Each entry is simplicity itself to follow, and where a particular word has several different senses, these are clearly indicated and explained. A perfect companion to THE NEW PENGUIN CONCISE ENGLISH DICTIONARY.

Ros Fergusson, Martin Manser and David Pickering are all highly experienced lexicographers and reference book compilers. Ros Fergusson lives in Newington, Kent, Martin Manser in Aylesbury, Bucks, and David Pickering in Buckingham.
