- Synopsis
- "Ologies and Isms is a toolkit for understanding words. Instead of just telling you what words mean, it defines their common parts so you can work out their meanings for yourself. Whatever your interests, Ologies and Isms will help you understand better the language of the world around you." "Features: contains over 1,250 entries and over 10,000 examples; teaches you to work out what difficult words mean; and a selective thematic index breaks word parts down by theme, e.g. biochemistry and drugs, living world, places and people. Invaluable for crossword and word-game lovers."--BOOK JACKET.
