商品簡介
This dictionary defines only words that native English speakers might not be sure of, many of them specific to a particular field. The arrangement is not purely alphabetical, but by topic--eight large categories such as language, society, and the sciences containing 52 smaller ones such as fields of study or practice, furniture and furnishings, and surgical procedures. The idea is that readers can find a word they vaguely know the meaning of but may not be able to spell or understand precisely. There is also an alphabetical list, referring to the proper section.
