Easy-to-use and packed with new images and illustrations, the Macmillan First Dictionary is the one to beat! This First Dictionary offers far more than the others--it's the most updated, contains charts and tables, and features more than double the illustrations and photos than similar dictionaries. This completely revised edition has been designed especially for beginning readers.

A comprehensive guide to legal style and usage, with practical advice on how to write clear, jargon-free legal prose. Includes style tips as well as definitions.

A one-volume dictionary of religion based on concepts drawn partly from the various religious traditions and partly from the historical and reflective study of religion as a modern academic discipline. As a dictionary rather than an encyclopedia, there will be concise explanations on a very large number of special terms rather than lengthy essays on selected subjects. Entries will include definitions of terms from various religious traditions which have now entered into current English usage, as well as a wide variety of semi-technical terms from related fields such as philosophy, sociology and social anthropology.
