Review :
[Starred Review: ] Wow! This book is simply amazing -- visually stunning, rich with information, and overflowing with detail... Not only is this book useful in learning the details and nuances of a foreign language but it is quite a handy way to learn these terms in one's own language... this brilliant work is essential for students of any of these languages, lovers of language, and any library supporting a language program or multilingual patrons.-- (02/15/2005) A valuable tool to expand young minds.--Nashville Parent (04/01/2005) Selected by Library Journal as one of the Best Reference Sources for 2004: "Such is the breadth of coverage that there are precise terms for 15 examples of shoes -- not to mention cell phones and even MP3 players."-- (04/15/2005) Where else are researchers going to find a complete listing of all the elements of the periodical table in five different languages compiled in one place? Irresistible for browsers, serviceable as either a basic visual dictionary or thesaurus, and of immense value to second-language learners.--Kathleen McBroom"Booklist" (05/15/2005) [The Top 20: Books] Vivid illustrations draw you into this clever compendium of 35,000 terms translated from English into Spanish, French, Italian, and German.--Amanda Armstrong"Real Simple" (01/01/2008)
