This addition to the Oxford thesaurus range should be handy for anyone who prefers an enlarged, easy-to-read page. Using the text of the popular Oxford Paperback Thesaurus, enlarged by 45%, it contains a straightforward A-Z listing of over 300,000 synonyms, with example phrases throughout to clarify meanings. The order of synonyms within entries is based on frequency of usage, with the commonest synonyms listed first. Words are labelled if they have a very specific field of use, e.g. if they are formal, informal, literary, medical, technical, vulgar, or specifically American or Australian.
