student's friend
Mine is not the new edition, but the one i do have is a fabulous resource. virtually every word i have looked for has been there (unlike Oxford mini-dictionary). verb conjugations essential for those grammar classes. so well-thumbed, a few pages are falling out! Highly recommended for a spanish student.

Ease of use is excellent.
This is good for any keen person trying to learn this difficult language. There is a concise but useful grammar section and also this edition is up to date with new terms linking with technology and also the Spanish culture.

There is some colour to help navigation and therefore speeds up the searching for words. I would recommend this to leisure users, students and beginners.

Mostly good
I haven't found that this dictionary is great, i'm an A level spanish student and I've already found that some of the words I've looked for haven't been in here. That aside it's a good dictionary, easy to use, easy to nunderstand and the grammer section in the back is very useful especially if you didn't have much experience with the language. I feel this is a dictionary for an intermediate student but starts to lose its value at AS and would be pretty useless for a university student.
