"An excellent thesaurus and an excellent system"
As a graduate student working on a thesis, I use this thesaurus constantly, as well as the companion Oxford English software dictionary. Both will be linked together in one pop-up bar that "docks" onto your title bar. Together they are extremely useful, and there are various foreign language dictionaries, too, that can be added. You purchase them individually, but then they are designed to link together on your title bar, and work in combination with each other.
If you purchase the thesaurus without the dictionary, I imagine that you might get some entries that produce "no results found." It's also possible that if you are researching a very specialized subject with a specialized vocabulary, you might also find some entries too obscure to produce an entry. For me, I enthusiastically recommend these, and I also purchased them as a gift for a niece entering college.
The dictionaries were especially designed for people who must translate frequently between the various European languages, as there is a great need for this with the European Union. If you are doing business with someone in Spain, and must then send on a communication to someone else in Italy, but your native language is English, these dictionaries will work in combination with each other.
I find the thesaurus a valuable addition to the other dictionaries that I purchased with this system.


"Not The Best"
Too many words come up "No Result Found." I find myself going back to Microsoft Word's Thesuarus time and time again.

"Great Tool"
This thesaurus is an excellent tool for the student or writer. It is easy to install and use. Since it installs on your computer, the CD rom is not needed once installation is complete. After installation the double click function can be turned on. To find a synonym, you highlight a word and double click. A pop up window opens which gives multiple meanings of the word and various forms of that word: verb, noun, adjective. It works great with windows. However, it will not replace the highlighted word with the chosen synonym.
