Review title: Compendium
Product review: This tome might be more accurately titled or described as a Biographical Compendium, not a Dictionary. It compares favorably with Webster's New Biographical Dictionary in that it contains more entries and is more current but compares unfavorably in that it does not contain the diacritical annotation required for the proper pronunciation of any of the entries. If you need a reference tool for speech writing, oral presentations, or the like, this Dictionary will not work out for you. If you need a reference tool that provides mini-bios, this will do.
