Description:

This software suite provides you with an efficient and contemporary method of accessing essential reference sources right from your computer. It bundles three complete programs: Webster's New World Dictionary & Thesaurus, the New Millennium Encyclopedia, and The Visual Dictionary.

With Webster's New World Dictionary & Thesaurus, all you have to do is click on a word to find its definition and a handy list of synonyms. Its smart search engine lets you search words without knowing the exact spelling, and its spell checker database is fully expandable. With over 500,000 definitions, synonyms, and antonyms--and a bonus of ready-to-use letter templates--this state-of-the-art dictionary and thesaurus is guaranteed to exceed expectations.

The New Millennium Encyclopedia is the ultimate home reference, containing eight authoritative works: Webster's College Dictionary, Roget's Thesaurus, Webster's Quotationary, Webster's Biographical Dictionary, Webster's English Language Desk Reference, The 1998 World Almanac and Book of Facts, Simon & Schuster World Atlas, and The NASA Chronicles. This suite was designed for students, families, businesses, writers, and researchers and contains a variety of search options and gives you the ability to download and install more books on the CD's search engines with the installed Versabook Library Builder.

The Visual Dictionary serves as an easy-to-use, all-inclusive reference source. The program effectively and accurately translates words into English, Spanish, and French. Full-color detailed illustrations identify objects and their component parts, and a powerful search engine lets you find objects quickly. You can also print out and export any of the 3,500 images to other applications. The Visual Dictionary gives you the opportunity to enhance your vocabulary in over 600 subjects.
