Summary: Rapido y Conciso
Comment: An excellent dictionary when you want a one-word definition, and still, words with multiple meanings are clearly laid out. Easy to read. Tending toward short entries. A joy for simple translation and a relief for vocabulary-building.
There are adequate sections on pronunciation, grammar, and conjugation. There are lists of common irregular verbs in Spanish and in English.
Encountering a foreign word for the first time, it is by definition unfamiliar. I was too often frustrated by otherwise-wonderful dictionaries which were simply hard to read (and my near-sight is excellent). This is by far my favorite of all the Spanish-English dictionaries I've seen.
Advanced students will want a more advanced dictionary (and possibly a magnifying glass, probably not needed here). For the other 99.9% of (us) Spanish learners, this is a great find.

Summary: El Mejor Diccionario
Comment: A dictionary is just one of those books that doesn't have much to speak of (no plot twists, no character development, etc.), so I'm afraid this review will be rather short.
That said, this is the BEST Spanish-English dictionary I've ever used. It contains over 85,000 entries, plus complete descriptions of both English and Spanish grammar, tables of all the irregular verbs, and a 45-page section that defines literally thousands of commonly used phrases and idioms in both languages. It also has synonyms for words that have multiple translations so that you know the difference, for example, between a person's hand ("mano") and the hand of a clock ("manecilla"). Nevertheless, it comes in a convenient size with easy-to-read font so that it's perfect for use by students. If you're a school student who's studying Spanish, this is the only Spanish-English dictionary you'll ever buy.

Summary: The best travel dictionary.
Comment: This is the paperback dictionary to travel with if you're a serious student. Not pocket-sized, but worth the weight. I've been in language schools in Spain and Mexico, and in both places the other students had dictionary envy. It's coverage is excellent, and it supplies synonyms for each definition, so you know you've got the right word at the right time.
