I really enjoy studying books for the purpose of enhancing my vocabulary as a non- native- English speaker. Compared to other GRE books I have read so far ( and others which were not intended for that particular purpose) , this one has quite a few helpful exercises to test one's memory. However, word definitions are too short for a thorough assimilation for the long run. A dictionary , in my opininion , should be a supplementary means to get a more profound understanding of each word. It could also have been conducive for the vocabulary- learner to have sentences in which words are contextually exemplified. But, as I guess , the ensuing exercises may partially compensate for the word definitions consiceness. I would suggest for GRE learners to get some other books ( such as WORD SMART ) as a complementary stuff.

Good effort but many errors
Good book with fun ways of trying to teach you the words, but sooo many errors. Almost every single crossword puzzle has errors with spacing and words fitting. They tell you the answer in the back of the book and yet it doesn't fit in the tiles. If the makers are reading this and want example lets take exercise 51 #4 across and please tell me how to fit the answer.
