About this title

Synopsis

Roget's International Thesaurus is the most comprehensive and useful thesaurus available today. It is a true thesaurus. It remains faithful to the original system of word association put forward by Dr Peter Mark Roget in the nineteenth century-a concept that has proved so fundamental and valuable that it is being used in research to simulate human intelligence in computers
