.Collins Gem Latin Dictionary: Second Edition by: D. A. Kidd, Harper Collins Publishers, HarperCollins 1996-11 As a high school student studying Latin, I have found this dictionary very useful for some time. The Latin to English and English to Latin sections are divided by a grey leaf grammar section. This is very useful for finding where you are, relative to the end or start of a section. However, my copy is now in several pieces. The binding and glue used leaves a lot to be desired (though I suppose it could just be that I got a faulty one). It started to fall apart from near the beginning, without rough usage. I wonder if others have experienced the same problem? Also, at 11cm high and 4cm wide, the size proportions are not the most convenient when you are trying to use it at school and flicking through it, etc. I wonder if HarperCollins ...

.Atlas of the Human Body by: Harper Collins Publishers October 13, 1994 Graphics are excellent with amazing clarity. This book has been tremendously popular with paramedic and EMT instructors and technicians in my area. I bought my copy to help with my EMT Advanced Life Support class and found it extremely helpful with the anatomy requirements. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in anatomy. >>See More Reviews & Details on Atlas of the Human Body |

.Collins Shubun Pocket English-Japanese Dictionary by: Harper Collins Publishers, HarperCollins, HarperCollins Publishers 2000-06 I'm not all that crazy about it, for one reason, I'm just not used to it. Sometimes, you get a little more than you expect. Like looking up family. I figured there would be a single kanji or word for it. Instead i find a compound for family relations, for children of a family, and another one for with a symbol next to it that I haven't looked up yet. What i'm saying is, sometimes you get more than you want, and you get surprised, but that's about the worst of it. The book is compact so you don't get sentences for most words. That's a reasonable trade-off. you may not want it as your sole dictionary though. I also would've liked sentences that do appear to have made the key word more visible, perhaps bolded. As it is, you read the sentence ... Read More: >>See More Reviews & Details on Collins Shubun Pocket English-Japanese Dictionary |

.Collins Portuguese Concise Dictionary Second Edition by: John Whitlam, Harper Collins Publishers, HarperCollins September 27, 2001 I am not like the others here who seem to know a lot about reviewing dictionaries. I just know and love Portuguese, and have found this book to contain about 96% percent of the words I look up (I look up a lot of computing technology words that still aren't there). My Brazilian friends have been impressed with the accuracy of the definitions in it, if that counts for anything. >>See More Reviews & Details on Collins Portuguese Concise Dictionary Second Edition |

.HarperCollins Spanish Dictionary, 2e by: Harper Collins April 11, 2000 This is a very good dictionary. I love the Harper Colllins dictionaries but this is the smallest one that I would recomend. Any dictionary with less words that this one is just to limited. The grammar section is good.(I an sure not the best judge on grammar) and the verb tables are priceless. >>See More Reviews & Details on HarperCollins Spanish Dictionary, 2e |

.Collins Gem Shubun English-Japanese Dictionary by: Harper Collins Publishers, HarperCollins, HarperCollins Publishers 1995-10 This book seems to be missing a lot of words. There have been several times I have tried to look a word up and have not found it listed. Most likely, it has just the most commonly used words. If this is all you need, this is a good dictionary to buy. If you want a reference of a large vocabulary, go for another. >>See More Reviews & Details on Collins Gem Shubun English-Japanese Dictionary |
