Synopsis
Unlike most slang dictionaries that list entries alphabetically, Slang takes on modern American English one topic at a time, from "auctionese" to "computerese", the drug trade and sports slang. "A wonderful compendium of Americanisms that help define us as a people. Slang is a lot of fun; or perhaps we should say 'da bomb.'" —San Antonio Express News " The great American topical slang compendium."—Robert L. Chapman, Ph.D., author The New Dictionary of American Slang and editor of Roget's International Thesaurus “With focus, a passion for language, and a word-class ear, Dickson has produced brilliant chapter after brilliant chapter, any one of which would be a lifetime achievement for most lexicographers.” ―Tom Dalzell, Senior Editor The New Partridge Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English and author of Flappers 2 Rappers--American Youth Slang and The Slang of Sin. “An easy book to pick up and get lost in and then wonder where the hours went.”—Minneapolis Star Tribune.
