Summary: Persian Vocabulary
Review: The strengths of this book are its phonetic notation, size and reasonable choice of vocabulary. It's a lot handier than bigger dictionaries, but unfortunately lacks many words one comes across in newspapers, poems, etc. It's certainly worth owning!

Summary: Why bother?
Review: This book is entitled "Persian Vocabulary," however "Persian Wordlist" would be a more appropriate title. I would much rather own a dictionary than this book. After having studied more languages than I can count and combing through books both valuable and worthless I believe that, at least for someone who learns languages the way that I do, this book would not help much. Why doesn't someone write a book with vocabulary learning techniques in mind? If the auther were to take a tenth of the vocabulary in this book and present it in an interesting, easy to learn format such a book would be well worth purchasing.

Summary: To be used with the author's "Persian Grammar."
Review: This book is not intended to be used by itself, but as an accompaniment to the author's "Persian Grammar" and it must be considered in this light. Students or reviewers who are unaware of this may be disappointed.Lambton's grammar is one of the two best currently available for Persian (the other is that of Thackston Wheeler). This vocabulary complements its exercises and readings.
