"A pragmatic approach to building vocabulary, organized according to common topics of conversation (albeit dated at 1949 when originally published). Includes a how-to for assessing your present vocabulary at the onset. Almost entertaining (how to topics include how to talk about personality types, doctors, liars and lying, speech habits, enemies, how to flatter friends, how to talk about complex ideas, attitudes, etc). Brief with respect to etymology/roots. Helpful for pronunciation, with comparisons among words with similar phonemes and/or syllable sounds."
"Not my favorite kind of book, but I've gone through it a couple of times, generally keeping it by my chair to read some each night. The vocabulary isn't particularly hard - it's better suited to a teenager. It does help."
"If you're teaching roots, read this book. I'm sure this is what curriculum specialists were reading when they decided all of the teachers needed to teach Greek and Latin roots. Forget vocabutoons, this book will help you so much!"
