Collins also have on offer a 'two-books-in-one' Dictionary and Thesaurus. This carries 71,000 entries, plus a quarter of a million synonyms. This dictionary is based on a simple but effective idea. Normal word entries appear in the top half of each page, whilst the bottom half presents lists of synonyms and antonyms (words which are similar or opposite). This is a device which encourages browsing and learning about language. A useful choice if you need to combine two sources of reference in one.
