Bernstein's Reverse Dictionary

Rating:
Summary: indispensable bernstein
Review: For those who've long lived with Bernstein's The Careful Writer and other titles, the Reverse Dictionary is just one more example of why he's essential to the word-conscious reader and writer. As the title implies, this dictionary takes you from definition to word and makes it possible for the mind of a certain age to regain all those terms that have slipped from the tip of the tongue to some less accessible region. The perfect enhancement for after-dinner conversation -- a must for the diningroom reference shelf.
