not up to par - [01 Jan 2010]

Never out of reach. - [07 Dec 2009]
I use this book almost every day. This is simply the best dictionary of Russian out there. The only flaw is that it does not have much in the way of slang or obscenities.

Very Good & Useful - [19 Oct 2009]

Katzner English-Russian dictionary - [20 Jun 2009]
