Good book to fine tune your vocabulary
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book, from the Better English Series, is a fairly decent book for businessmen to sharpen their vocabulary. Although some of the words may already be in the vocabulary of middle to high level businessmen, it reinforces those, as well as clearly teaching new words through its 30 minute program (which I find, one can finish in about 15 minutes). The vocabulary presented covers a broad range of words, and the book is overall a straight-ahead, no-nonsense guide for businessmen, as well as for people of occupations in which an expanded vocabulary is beneficial to their job.
