Items related to Dictionary of Synonyms and Antonyms
The Oxford Dictionary of Synonyms and Antonyms provides an easy-to-use source of over 150,000 alternative and opposite words in order to improve your wordpower and communication skills, and also make your English more interesting and original. For each entry, synonyms are listed

Review:
`"In its new paperback edition the Oxford Dictionary of Synonyms and Antonyms is sufficiently small and lightweight to fit easily into a briefcase or bag--which makes it ideal for the writer on the move who wants to have a word finder wtih them as they travel but doesn't want to be encumbered with a full-blown thesaurus."' Writing Magazine
