Compiled by WordCraft Editing and Writing Limited and edited by Dr. John Ellison Kahn—a noted lexicographer and linguist—this innovative reference tool is designed to help writers find the exact word they need starting from a simple idea or definition. Unlike a standard dictionary, it organizes language by concepts, making it indispensable for overcoming "tip-of-the-tongue" moments and expanding one's vocabulary with precise, persuasive, and technical terms. This specific copy is the 1991 reprint of the 1989 first edition and is in good used condition, featuring a bright red hardcover with some light bumping and wear at the spine ends and corners. The interior pages are clean and securely bound.
