Gorgeous-Gorgeous

I have read and reread this book several times a year for the past 6 years. It is astounding how such lovely and ancient things can still be extant. The provenance and stories behind a lot of the jewelry is not found in a lot of history books. I could just look at this book by the hour!

A bit backward in terms of features and interface

It is a useful tool and a comprehensive range of reference books. I think that alone makes it value for money, as the price is less than hardcopies of those books would cost. As other reviewers have observed, it is let down a fair bit by the interface. The product is dominated by offering little context-sensitive popups, rather than a decent eBook layout alternative. I think it would be useful if English was a second language, or you regularly struggle with vocabulary. However, I generally do not need help when reading websites, I am more likely to want to find words, definitions etc when writing something myself. This product is fairly well suited to giving further information about stuff displayed on the screen, but a bit weak as support in research. Having said that, the reference material is all there and can be searched and retrieved without too much difficulty .. just more longwinded than one would expect nowadays.

great content

The content of this software more than compensates for lack of functionality. You also have the opportunity to download lots of other foreign language and other reference dictionaries into this one place. Its great for research.
