Good condition paperback pictorial cover, no DJ. 154 pages good and clean with clear print. 'Are you "antsy", "eggy" or is life just "cushty"? does your doctor think your're a 'heartsink'? And is this because really your're a bit of a 'wuss'? Keeping up with the ever-changing world of modern English can be a full time occupation. Words gain new meanings, old words come back into fashion; new words are constantly invented; and foreign words suddenly gatecrash the party.
