It is an OK dictionary, however, the definitions could be more clear. Also, I have to add that the item delivery by Amazon was perfect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to understand explanations
Reviewed in the United States on 26 October 2017
Verified Purchase
I've found most of the terms I've been looking for here. Explanations are easy to understand, which is the most important thing for me.

I have the Kindle version, and use Kindle's search function to find terms. This is no worse or better than any other book. Works fine for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 December 2012
Verified Purchase
Really helpful in my studies, it explains everything I need to know really easily in a way that I can understand (of which is normally the downfall of my textbooks at college). Worth buying for anyone who wants to learn a bit extra Maths or is in need of aid with their studies. 5/5.
