Summary: Pocket Oxford Spanish Dictionary
Comment: I am a beginning Spanish student and found this dictionary very helpful. I particularly liked how the dictionary was split in two, front part being the Spanish to English and the back part being the English to Spanish. The only thing I wish it included was the phonic way to pronounce the Spanish words. All in all it is a good dictionary but if I had found one that helped you pronounce the Spanish words I would have gotten that one first.

Summary: Not the most comprehensive paperback available
Comment: This dictionary (identical to the one sold in hard covers as the "Desk" dictionary of Spanish) is excellent within its limits. If compactness and simplicity of layout are your most important criteria (and you don't want a "baby" dictionary), then this may be the right choice for you.
But if you want the most extensive coverage available in paperback, the Webster's New World Spanish Dictionary (ISBN 0139536477) has MANY more words and definitions, while still remaining compact enough in comparison to the big hardcovers. As someone who used the Oxford Pocket until I outgrew it and then moved on to the Webster's New World & have been delighted with its superiority, I can make this recommendation w/o reservation.

Summary: IT'S A LITTLE BIGGER BUT WORTH CARRYING AROUND
Comment: THIS IS A GOOD ONE. MANY SMALLER POCKET DICTIONARIES ARE WORTHLESS...THIS ONE JUST ABOUT ALWAYS HAS THE WORD I AM
LOOKING FOR WITH GOOD SYNONYMS AND EXPLANATIONS. IT WILL FIT
IN A PURSE OR BACKPACK EASILY AND IS WELL WORTH ITS WEIGHT WITH
THE INSIGHT IT PROVIDES
