Summary: A poorly bound book
Review: Although this book has more listings in it than the old Romanov standby, which would appear promising, there are significant shortcomings. I have purchased 2 copies, and neither has lasted longer than 4 weeks. I am translating just about every day, and I do use a small dictionary extensively, but I believe that any paperback dictionary should be able to hold up to the repeated use for which it is supposedly designed.

Summary: Nice Content But Too Delicate
Review: I found the content excellent, however I agree with the other reviewer that it is poorly bound. Mine fell apart after three weeks. On a trip pocket dictionaries like this will be in daily use and take quite a pounding. Regrettably, this book is just not up to it.

Summary: It's impossible
Review: It's impossible for anyone who does not know the Cyrillic alphabet to cope with this dictionary, as for some reason it does not devote any space to showing the English translation of the Cyrillic letters. Also, the print is fine and pale.I concede that this is one book I should have looked at before purchasing. As they say, let the buyer beware.

Summary: Excellent value!
Review: This pocket Russian dictionary is one of the best that I've used.
It shows all perfective and imperfective verbs, it includes irregular verb endings
and indicates the accent (udarenie) of all Russian words.
I disagree with the poor rating given by a reader that complained about the lack of Cyrillic transliteration.
This dictionary is for people who ALREADY know the Cyrillic alphabet.
A great dictionary at a great price!
