Roget's International Thesaurus (8th Edition Revised and Updated)

Unlike alphabetical thesauri, Roget's International Thesaurus works the same way your brain does. First, you figure out the general category or the meaning for which you are seeking a word: Are you looking for a word related to values and ideals? Measures or shapes? Then, look up the keywords to find the exact entry you're seeking. Plus, the index allows you to find any word or phrase wherever it appears in the thesaurus.

More than 443,000 words and phrases in 1,075 categories comprise this new edition of Roget's, including the newest slang words and expressions. In addition, 300 supplemental wordlists offer the names of many things within the categories (wine, weapons, animals, state mottoes, and more).

Roget's International Thesaurus can help you to improve your writing and speech as well as enrich your active vocabulary.
