Un buon dizionario. Non enorme ma con tanti piccoli disegni e buone descrizioni. Il problema di questo libro è che ci vuole spesso del tempo per consultarlo: non ha un indice e quindi forse sarà più apprezzato da chi traduce dall’inglese (es. se tu italiano cerchi “parcel gilt” lo troverai – ma se so il significato ma non il termine, non mi servirà a niente andare a cercare sotto “gilt”, “gilding” o “gold”perché intanto non lo troverò).
