5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT vocabulary builder
I own at least 12 books on vocabulary building and LOVE this book! It utilizes etymology, the study of roots, prefixes, and suffixes. Once you know and understand the meaning of roots, prefixes, and suffixes, it unlocks the meaning of THOUSANDS of words, even if you've never seen or heard them before. VERY powerful vocabulary builder, in my opinion. HIGHLY recommended.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is kind of odd
When I was in Junior High, we had to use this book to increase our vocabularies. Only buy it if you are prepared to face up to words like Nymphomania, and Dendroid (let's just hope there aren't any dendroid nymphomaniacs out there!) Overall, it improves your vocabulary, but it is also very boring.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for everyone, September 4, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Instant Word Power (Paperback)
This book is a great buy for anyone who wants to increase their vocabulary. It breaks down words into their parts so that mixing and matching parts allows you to figure out the meanings of words that you otherwise would never bother to memorize. I strongly recommend this book.
