Chambers Mini Thesaurus is a handy and portable book that helps you find the right word for every occasion. It provides alternatives for about 9,000 common English words and also gives words with the opposite meaning (antonyms) where appropriate. Around 200 panels entries contain words relating to particular subjects, ranging from the technical to the general - so, in addition to the synonyms for 'flower', you will also find a list of types of flower (African violet, alyssum, anemone...) and a list of the parts of a flower (anther, calyx, capitulum...), adding an extra dimension to your vocabulary. A useful supplement on countries of the world gives information on capitals, official languages, largest and smallest countries by area and other helpful demographic data.
