4.0 out of 5 stars
Very Good ! BUY IT ! However...,
This review is from: 21st Century Dictionary of Slang (21st Century Reference) (Mass Market Paperback)
First of All: I found this book great. As a non-native english speaker, it helps me a lot. Its category index is great - and there are lots of them. It is really a good investment. BUY IT! However it needs some review.It is a 1994 edition and Slang is a very dynamic issue. Besides that, I found one problem, which did not compromised its reputation, but reveals the necessity of a revision. Looking for "Top Banana" (which means big boss, chief), the book shows "see also big cheese, head honcho, and top dog". However, when I looked for these synonyms, I realized that "head honcho" is not in the book. This wasn't really a problem, but ... it cost one star. IT IS VERY, VERY USEFUL !
