Just as described - By: DP, 14 Apr 2008 
This book seems to be exactly as described, & is perfect for UK Scrabble words. Bearin mind that this is not a comprehensive dictionaryin so far as only words upto nine letters are included, & the descriptions are short. However it is great for Scrabble, & crucially includes all variations of a word such as plural, different tense etc. Fully worth the money!
has all those unusual words you only use in Scrabble - By: S. Gates, 21 Jan 2008 For years I would judge a dictionary on it's quality by whether it had the words qat, zex, & jowin it, which of course none of them do, unless you pay an arm & a leg & get a dictionary that weighs an absolute tonne! Then I discovered this handy little volume which has all those strange scrabble words, a brief description (usually one word description), & my search was over. This dictionary is marvelous. Definately a must for anyone wanting to improve their game, or to silence those challenges over dubious looking words.
Recommended for even casual players of all word games - By: Tony Woodhouse, 08 Nov 2007 This book is brilliant for all families that enjoy casual word games.
It is comprehensive & authoritative, so it contains all the words that should be allowedin a word game, but aren'tin grandma's 1963 edition of the Concise Oxford dictionary that you keep next to Delia on the bookshelf.
Due to it's very brief format & small print, it's small & light. You can take it on holiday with you.
Because it's a dictionary with definitions rather than just a word-list, you can learn what the words mean, which is a great aid to learning.
It can be used for all word games such as Boggle, Upwords etc. not just Scrabble.
Highly recommended
