Print is very tiny but you wouldn't mind if you are a regular user of pocket dictionaries. Has almost all the words. The paper is sort of like thicker newspaper quality which is ecofriendly and is totally acceptable than the polished smooth papers that harm environment.
Thesaurus itself Hasn't been very useful for me yet, but just for a couple of exams. I'm sure it will definitely be of more help some day.

Pocket edition reference books have their pros and cons. This one is very handy and quite comprehensive but the writing is very small. If you have trouble reading small print, this isn't the right format. If you're a school-age student, this is perfect.

The idea-based thesaurus! Sounds good! It is indeed very informative. One will not get bored as one gets while browsing a dictionary. But there is a trade off. Less price gives you smaller fonts. Exactly you find in dictionary. Else, fantastic product to have!

Roget's Thesaurus (21st Cantury Reference)

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 December 2012

Format: Mass Market PaperbackVerified Purchase

I was very disappointed to find this book to be small in format but thick for a format of this size. In the case of a novel, which may be read once or twice, this hardly matters but a reference book should withstand constant use without falling apart. The spine is gummed and breaks easily. I foresee that this book has a limited life. Moreover, the text is uncommonly small, making it hard to read. A magnifying glass is practically essential. I think these considerations should be made clear at the point of sale. I use Roget constantly and I see that I shall not get my money's worth. I award two stars for the quality of the contents but for the means of delivery, zilch (blank, diddly-squat, goose egg, hill of beans, insignificancy, nada, naught...)

An excellent little Thesuarus that's made easier to use by its dictionary format. Be warned that the type is rather small, ( it has to be really to keep it a manageable size ), so you'll need good eyesight or some form of magnification.

I bought it for my daughter, to improve her vocabulary and all in all it does the job very well.

Für einen unschlagbar günstigen Preis bekommt man hier ein dickes Buch mit hochaktuellem Wortschatz geliefert, das sowohl beim Schreiben von englischen Texten auf hohem Niveau als auch bei der Suche nach interessanten Wörtern, die man noch nicht kennt, unersetzlich ist. Vor allem geeignet für Leute mit Englisch-Kenntnissen auf Proficiency-Nivau und darüber. Vorsicht: Die Schrift der Taschenbuchausgabe ist sehr klein.

シソーラスにも色々あって、これぞ完成形かと思ったが…

Reviewed in Japan on 1 December 2018

Format: Mass Market PaperbackVerified Purchase

シソーラスにも色々あって、30年以上前から使ってきたペーパーバックがぼろぼろになり数年前に別の代物（Harper社)に買い替えたのだが、巻末の索引（もっとも使用頻度の高い部分）が購入者をバカにしていると思われるほどにいい加減な作りで、使い物にならなかった。もちろん、今の時代だから、使用頻度としてはネットで利用できるシソーラスや、ハイスペックの電子辞書に組み込まれているシソーラスを使うほうが多いのだが、アラカンという私自身の年齢のせいもあろうか、月に数回はいまも紙の方を使っている。

で、この Bantam Dell 社版に乗り換えたわけだが、なんと辞書形式になっていて使いやすいのなんの！　今まで使ってきた2冊は、たとえば thief の同義語を調べたいときに、巻末で thief をしらべ、そこに出ているいくつかのページを開いて同義語にたどり着くものであったが、この in dictionary form 版はまさに辞書を引くみたいに一回だけ thief を引けば良いのだ。こういう形式のシソーラスがあること自体知らなかったので、びっくりしている。米語表現には＊がついていて便利。これからはシソーラスをストレスなく使えそうで、わたしは今とっても幸せな気分である。

しかし、シソーラスというのはどの会社から出ているものであれ、みな一長一短。ためしに「眼科医 ophthalmologist 」にたどり着くことを期待して、「 o で始まっている《医者》を意味する単語があったが、なんだっけ」との想定で引いてみた。しかし、doctor / medicine などを引いて試してみたが、このシソーラスではたどり着くことができなかった。ウーム、なかなか満点のシソーラスとはいかないものだな。想定場面自体が、シソーラスが苦手としている部類だから、しょうがないかもしれない。それでも、辞書形式で一回引けばよいというメリットは、なかなか捨てがたい。

なお、「活字が小さすぎる！」との低評価のレビューが複数あるが、国語辞典のような語義を読むための辞典と同様のとらえ方をしている人は、思い違いをしていらっしゃる。分かりやすく日本語のシソーラスを例にとるが、シソーラスとはそもそも「えーと、あのー、ほら、あれ、すごい速さでダーッと行くこと、四文字熟語であったはずなんだけど、なんて言ったっけぇ」というような場合に、「速い」を引いて使う辞典なのだ。だから私のように老眼がすごく進んでいても、小さい字で「一瀉千里」らしき文字が目に入るだけで「あーそれ、それ。"イッシャセンリ" だった。さーすが、シソーラス！」と役に立つわけ。

小さい字が嫌いな人は、デジタル版で出ているものを買うか、大きな活字を使っている、値段的には数倍はするハードカバーのシソーラスを買うことなる。安価で手に入るペーパーバック版を買って「字が小さい」と文句を言ってはいけない。

充実した内容でとてもいいです。ペーパーバックなので、分厚い割りに軽く使いやすいです。
他の方が製本が悪い、字が小さいと批評されていますが、海外のペーパーバックは紙質も製本もこんなものだと思います。日本の辞書のような、薄くてもしっかりした紙ではないですが、その分手が出しやすい価格です。この内容で1000円越えるか越えないかなら、安いものだと思います。

Reviewed in Japan on 29 December 2014

Format: Mass Market PaperbackVerified Purchase

TOEICの学習で語彙を調べる際、日本語を介さずに同義語をこの本で、合わせてOXFORD英英で活用しています。
THESAURUSはいろいろ試してみましたが、やはりこれに勝るものは私の中ではありません。語によっては語義がイタリックで書いてあったり、また、アスタリスクのついたもののなかに非常に面白い表現があり、同義語等を理解するのに思わず「なるほど」と納得しています。
語数も多いため文字が小さめなのは仕方のないことですが、印刷も鮮明で手放せません！！ぼろぼろになるまで使いこなしたい一品です。
