Containing more than 25,000 terms that match up with 3,000 black-and-white illustrations, The Facts on File Visual Dictionary is perfect for anyone who desires a wide range of detailed graphic knowledge from a variety of areas. The Facts on File Visual Dictionary not only provides a wealth of pictures, graphics, and illustrations--listed by theme in an easy-to-follow table of contents--but also lets readers start from just one word, providing a series of indexes broken into thematic and specialized sections to help them find what they're after. These sections cross-reference each other nicely, making it simple for the dedicated linguistics student to track down pictures of everything from an accordion pleat to an accordion bag by just flipping a few pages.
