This is an excellent biological dictionary. I have found it to be very useful. This dictionary is conveniently small in width and height, packing a lot in around with you; fitting in a backpack amongst many textbooks is a must. If you need a small desk dictionary this is a good choice as well.
It has 50,000 entries, including modern terms in all major fields of botany, zoology and microbiology. The print is sharp and small but not too small; therefore, the text is easy to read. I highly recommend this as your choice of a biological dictionary. Small enough that you can find things quickly, big enough to have the words you want.
As a foreigner student in Germany, I was forced to have such as dictionary, the price is affordable. I think it would be an adequate material for undergraduate and graduate students. Helpful when I am writing scientific papers and reports. I recommend this dictionary for anyone in Germany working in, studying, or interested in biology. It is beautifully made: good quality paper and hard cover.
Very highly recommended!
