is a distillation of the twenty-volume Oxford English Dictionary into just two
volumes: an incredible one third of the coverage of the OED in one tenth of the
size. Including all words in current English from 1700 to the present day, it
combines the world's best dictionary of contemporary English with a comprehensive
account of the historical development of the language.
# More than half a million
definitions, covering dialect, literary, and technical vocabulary, as well as
English from all parts of the world.
# Updated with new words and meanings
and thousands of newly discovered antedatings.
# Over 85,000 quotations illustrate
how words have been used by writers throughout the centuries.
# New introductory
essay on the History of English by David Crystal Fresh and elegant new design
for ease of use and aesthetic appeal.
