'THE CHAMBERS DICTIONARY IS THE MOST USEFUL AND DIVERTING
SINGLE-VOLUME WORD-HOARD AVAILABLE' Telegraph 'CHAMBERS IS A MARVEL
OF WIT, CLARITY AND PRACTICALITY' Observer 'THE MOST HUMAN OF
DICTIONARIES' Philip Pullman 'CHAMBERS IS AN OPEN DOOR TO WORDS AT
THEIR WITTIEST, MOST ROOTED, MOST REVEALING, AND MOST POWERFUL' Ali
Smith First published in 1872, The Chambers Dictionary contains
more words, phrases and meanings than any other single-volume
English dictionary. Yet it remains lighter and easier to hold, and
now has an even more durable jacket so that it will be a beautiful
hardback reference for many years to come. This 13th edition
retains the much-loved features of The Chambers Dictionary,
including the unique, quirky definitions. There are over 1,000 new
words and meanings, and there is also a brand new two-colour Word
Lover's Ramble, showing how English words and definitions have
changed over the history of The Chambers Dictionary. The Chambers
Dictionary is now the UK's number 1 selling hardback dictionary. It
is regarded as the dictionary of choice for crossword setters and
solvers, and is popular with players of wordgames such as
Scrabble(R) and Words With Friends(R). It is famous for its
Scottish heritage, its thorough coverage of obscure words, and its
unique personality that comes across in a definition style that is
both useful and witty. 'CHAMBERS STANDS OUT LIKE A BAROQUE MANSION
IN A CITY OF FACELESS CONCRETE' Melvyn Bragg ***Fully revised and
updated February 2016 to include additional 'enriching' words***
