Synopsis:

Chambers Large Print Thesaurus is ideal for those who need a thesaurus that provides large, clear text without compromising the content. It contains an extensive and up-to-date selection of synonyms and antonyms, presented in a large font on uncluttered and easy-to-read pages. Like its companion volume, Chambers Large Print Dictionary, it has been designed and compiled with the advice of the RNIB and the British Dyslexia Association.

The RNIB reports that three million people in the UK are being denied the right to read because they have a sight problem, dyslexia or another reading disability. 96 per cent of books are not available in large print. The RNIB's new Right to Read campaign aims to make more texts available.
