Description

Much more than a word list, the <em>Oxford American Writer's Thesaurus</em> is a browsable source of inspiration as well as an authoritative guide to selecting and using vocabulary. This innovative thesaurus eatures real-life example sentences, usage notes, literary quotations, and thought-provoking reflections on favorite (and not-so-favorite) words by over two dozen renowned contemporary writers. The third edition revises and updates this innovative reference, enhancing it with new features and adding hundreds of new words, senses, and phrases to the more than 300,000 synonyms and 10,000 antonyms.
