Overview

Descriptionary is especially useful to readers looking for a descriptive or technical term, when they know the word but not its meaning, or when they know the subject but not the word. Updated and easy-to-use, the book features indispensable glossaries arranged by category and a new chapter that includes basic vocabulary words and expressions such as critical mass, Pandora's box, coup d'etat, and c'est la vie. Sample Entries: The Internet -- e-zine: an on-line magazine -- surf: to explore various sites on the Internet, for fun or for research purposes -- .com: at the end of an email or web address, a designation for a commercial enterprise.
