Synopsis:
This Win/Mac CD-ROM version combines the entire contents of Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary and Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Thesaurus on one CD, and installs easily on hard drive for instant access. It features 215,000 definitions, 340,000 synonyms and related words, 1000 color illustrations, 21 powerful search functions, and a Go-Online option for quick updates.
Review: Not everyone needs a dictionary that's heavier than a Thanksgiving turkey and a vocabulary of 450,000 words. The Collegiate Dictionary, a mere 3.5 pounds, is an excellent compromise, with clear definitions and brief etymologies. Few students and professionals will want for words not covered within its 1500-plus pages. Biographical and geographical names are relegated to the index, which also includes a "Handbook of Style." A fine up-to-date starter dictionary (copyright 1996), it's small enough for a student's desk, and comprehensive enough to maintain Merriam-Webster's standards.
