A Review of "Merriam-Webster's Vocabulary Builder"
by Mary Wood Cornog
ISBN 0-87779-910-5

This book 558 pages and is organized into twenty-five study units.
Each of the twenty five-study unit is composed of a series of classical roots. Each root has an explanation.
Following each root/explanation is a list of words based on the classical root. Each modern word has a pronunciation key, followed by a simplified definition and an example. The definitions are good and the examples are well thought-out. Frequent quizzes ensure comprehension.
This book is a good vocabulary builder and is easy to read and use as a self-study guide.

Great way to expand your mind ( md50043 )
The CD-ROM version seems to have gotten poor reviews, but never mind that. This is an excellent book to build and expand your vocabulary. It's not written like a dictionary which makes the writing kind of fun.
