The second edition of this concise phrase book is an essential tool for
all students who want to communicate their ideas, arguments and
evaluations clearly and precisely. Featuring over 2,000 words common to
most academic disciplines, it will help students to expand their
vocabulary, understand how these words are used and spot mistakes in
their own academic writing. Units present the words in full sentences,
enabling users to see exactly how they are used, and also include
additional information on context, connotation and collocations.
This is an ideal reference guide for students of all disciplines and
levels who are required to complete written assignments as part of their
course. It is also a valuable resource for students looking to fine tune
their vocabulary for job searches, interviews and writing for
professional purposes.
