‘The gold standard of American dictionaries’ - Providence Journal
Produced by Oxford's American Dictionaries Program, and drawing on the expertise of scores of American scholars and advisers, The New Oxford American Dictionary, Second Edition, sets the standard of excellence for lexicography in this country.
Oxford's American editors drew on its 200-million-word databank of contemporary English, plus the unrivalled citation files of the world-renowned Oxford English Dictionary. The result is an all-new and updated American dictionary, the crowning achievement in the Oxford line of American dictionaries and thesauruses.
