Oxford Dictionary of Zoology
~ Written on Mar 4, 2009. out of users found this review helpful.

I am a first year student doing a science degree and am not overly impressed with this book. Doesn't appear to be very compehensive. Have had to refer back to the old faithful 'Henderson's Dictionary of Biology' for quite a few zoological words that should be in it but are not.

Brilliant dictionary....certainly not comrehensive

This is a wonderful dictionary, and I will sometimes end up reading it like a book! I gave it 4 stars however basically because there do appear to be quite a few words which are completely absent where their presence would have been appreciated. However it is great, it will not be the last zoology dictionary you ever need to buy, but despite that it is worth the purchase.

Very useful!

I like all these Oxford science dictionaries. Mine are v dog-eared from constant grabbing from my side when reading through heavy textbooks. They're great because the entries can be extensive without being too long-winded. Well cross-referenced too. Once you look up one thing you'll end up looking up far more!
