The Cambridge Thesaurus of American English, first published in 1994, is an original collection in A-Z format of over 200,000 synonyms and antonyms, compiled by William Lutz, author of Doublespeak and a renowned expert on language use. It is appropriate for college and high school students and the general public.
Cambridge Thesaurus selects those that are synonyms or near-synonyms in the widest range of contexts, labeling any that are slang. Synonyms are listed according to their antonyms, and are distinguished by sense.
