This is a great book; I've been using Wehr's dictionary ever since I took up Arabic more than forty years ago. I bought the 1966 edition brand new for $30--at that time, the most money I had ever spent on a single book. Now I see that the revised edition goes for $395. Book prices have certainly outstripped general inflation, haven't they?

This is "the" dictionary for serious students, but it breaks my heart to see people paying so much for it, when it's available in the Middle East in HC for around $15.

My mother bought this for me for Christmas. She used the "available new and used" section to get it a little cheaper. She ended up paying $160 or so. When I put this on my wish list I thought that this hardcover version would be the Arabic-English/English-Arabic, considering that it was $175 and the paperback of the Arabic-English only was available for $45. As it turns out, this is only the hardcover of the Arabic-English only. So for one, my mother paid an additional $115 for only the hardcover version of a book that I could have gotten in the paperback for $45. I still do not have the English-Arabic of the Hans Wehr edition.

The dictionary is essential to for a Anglophone to learn the Arabic language because of its trilateral organisation of Arabic words
