At the start of the 20th century, Chambers produced the acclaimed Twentieth Century Dictionary, a book which revolutionized the way in which people perceived and used dictionaries. In the 21st century, most dictionary users have rather different needs, and these are addressed by Chambers 21st Century Dictionary.
Chambers 21st Century Dictionary looks at the English language from a fresh perspective. The needs of the reader are always paramount, and this will be immediately apparent on comparing it with any other dictionary. Drawn from the unique Chambers database of language and reference materials, this new dictionary provides in one volume an exceptional range of information about English and how to use it.
Please note: people seeking to replace copies of the Chambers Twentieth Century Dictionary are advised to purchase The Chambers Dictionary, which is the direct successor to that book.
