Cambridge University Press is widely respected
as a world leader in publishing for subjects as diverse as
astronomy, Shakespeare studies, economics, mathematics and
politics. In the sciences, the Press has published authors from
William Harvey and Isaac Newton, through Rutherford, Einstein
and Schrödinger, to Stephen Hawking and Roger Penrose, alongside
authoritative organizations such as the Intergovernmental Panel
on Climate Change. The Press publishes in such pioneering areas
as bioinformatics, string theory, astrophysics and planetary
science. In medicine, the acquisition of Greenwich Medical Media
has expanded an already strong list to include exam-led and
syllabus-led publishing. In the humanities and social sciences,
the Press publishes Umberto Eco, Amartya Sen, Richard Rorty,
Wole Soyinka and Noam Chomsky, together with agencies such as
the World Trade Organization and the International Committee of
the Red Cross.
The range of Cambridge journals reflects
the Press's aims as a scholarly publisher. Currently, almost
200 journals are produced for the global market, publishing
the latest research in subjects from architecture to world
trade. Some are owned by the Press itself, while others are
published on behalf of learned and professional societies.
Delivery of journal content via the
internet has led to new markets opening up across the world.
These include libraries operating together as consortia, and
institutions in the developing world becoming able to access
journals for the first time. Cambridge is active in all
these markets and works with many organizations to bring
journals to research institutions across the globe. From
North America to Sub-Saharan Africa, the dedication of
Cambridge University Press to advancing knowledge is visible
within our journals, seven days a week, twenty-four hours a
day.

Reviews from some of the customers of this
Dictionary
Very good for non-native speakers, June 11, 2005
Reviewer: Customer "Consumer" (Washington, DC United States) -
See all my reviews
The book has sample sentences and the CD has not only US & UK
pronouncations, it also has a smart thesaurus with "Verb
Endings" for first person, second person, etc., "Extra Examples"
sentences, and "Usage note" such as "few or a few" as well as
idioms.
You can install the full version of the CD into HD. Very useful
reference book for ESL sutdents and people who often have errors
in English. This 2nd ed. CD has bigger and clearer layout than
the previous version.
There are a few little annoyances about this CALD2, especially
the about accompanied Quick Time Player. It cannot be shutted
down and always sticked at the task bar. Also, it takes about a
minute and half to start this CALD2. CALD1 is much faster to
run. Well, these do not affect the definitions.
This is from the CALD2 for a common learner error:
fault or mistake/error?
Use fault when explaining who is responsible for something bad.
It's my fault that the car was stolen. I left the window open.
It's my mistake the car was stolen. I left the window open.
Use mistake or error for talking about something that you did or
thought which was wrong. Error is slightly more formal than
mistake.
We lost a week's work due to a computer error.
I still make lots of mistakes in my essays.
