Up-Clear and user-friendly, this set addresses the needs of student writers by offering a three-volume thesaurus, a grammar handbook, and a style manual, all of which have a dictionary format. The thesaurus has 17,000 main entries, each of which includes the part of speech, a concise definition, and a wide variety of alphabetical synonyms and antonyms. Colloquial expressions or nonstandard usage are marked. The vocabulary selection reflects modern practices and a timely awareness of new technologies, disciplines, nonsexist linguistics, and a global consciousness. Entries in the grammar handbook cover not only rules and examples, but also specific words that often cause errors. An engaging "How to Know What You Don't Know" section lists the most common mistakes that beset writers, a clever self-exam, and a key-word index. The style manual promises quick solutions to readers' common questions, but is not all inclusive.
