This entirely new dictionary was conceived and constructed from scratch to serve the needs and reflect the capacities of upper-intermediate-level students of English. It is comprehensive -- 24,000 words defined and 35,000 examples -- but the words have been carefully selected to cover the core vocabulary plus the words students will encounter when they take the SAT1 or any of the major ESL exams. The definitions are clearly written using a simple English vocabulary of just 1,500 words. This unique approach to word definition eliminates the great flaw of traditional dictionaries, that the definitions are often as incomprehensible to students as the words being looked up. Teachers of English as a Foreign Language courses will find this dictionary a terrific resource. Also included are phonetic pronunciations for each word, quotations from newspapers to show how each word is used in a semiformal context, and collocations within examples to show related words.

A vocabulary of 7,500 words and phrases covering all aspects of human resources and personnel management. Words are used in context, with quotations from magazines and newspapers to show current usage. There is an appendix of examples of advertisements, job descriptions and other documents.
