`It is fair to say that the new Routledge dictionary out-scores even the Ernst for comprehensiveness, and can claim two further advantages: it is printed in a format much easier to read, and it gives the field of activity for every entry, not just for a selected few, as does the Ernst.This is a state-of-the-art dictionary and the publisher is to be congratulated in bringing such a project to fruition.' - Language International
`The layout is excellent, making it very easy to find the appropriate translation and giving a generous amount of information ... this is good general technical work and a welcome addition to the rather patchy and often idiosyncratic world of french-English bilingual technical dictionaries. it is now one of the three books to come down from my shelves as soon as apiece of french arrives' - ITI Bulletin
`An ambitious,substantial, authoritative and impressive piece of work ... a quality piece of work and a worthy part of any language/technical library reference section' - Reference Review
