Title: completely redundant
Review: Almost every entry here is a straightforward, unimaginative transcription of the short etymology feature included in ANY dictionary of the English language. A typical entry in this book reads (in full): "Slander: Slander is from Old French esclandre, an alteration of escandle, from late Latin scandalum 'scandal'." Which, as you can see, doesn't contain a single iota of information you couldn't find from the entry for "slander" in Webster, American Heritage, OED, or any halfway decent dictionary. This book is both a redundancy and a rip-off. Stay away.
