English offers perhaps the richest vocabulary of all languages, in part because its words are culled from so many languages. It is a shame that we do not tap this rich source more often in our daily... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Although, there is not much of chapters (only 4) these 4000 vocabulary words definitions are abbriviated so learning them is easier. I have had this book for 2 weeks almost and at my age(15) I infer, my vocabulary is sharper than ever. The caption says what the books is. I belive the best way to learn and shrpen vocabulary is simply by learning set by set of words. This is a good commodity for the astute reader. audeu.

I am an English major and had never seen the majority of the words listed in here! Since I am always looking to learn interesting new words this was a real find. It is an excellent tool while preparing for the verbal section of the GRE and learning more colorful terms in general.
