A good dictionary There is a direct correlation between a person’s intelligence
and their command of the English language.
By improving your vocabulary and understanding the finer
meanings between words you can express your ideas more fully.
You also enrich your whole experience of life because you

In your profession you must at least have the vocabulary
of your contemporaries to communicate on an equal level. To
lead you must have a greater command of your language.
Keep a good dictionary available and expand your word power.

down his account of his experiences of Auschwitz, which can
be disturbing reading. But for all the terrible experiences

made a huge contribution to psychology. He lived to over 90
