From The Publisher:

A revised and updated edition of the classic top-seller, "Word Smart, 4th Edition" introduces the words educated adults should know, and provides the keys to effective communication, vocabulary enrichment, and standardized test score improvement.
To find out which words readers absolutely need to know, The Princeton Review researched the vocabularies of educated adults by analyzing major newspapers and books and focusing on the words that people misunderstand or misuse. We also examined the SAT and other standardized tests to determine which words are tested most frequently.
All of the entries in "Word Smart, 4th Edition" are necessary for an impressive vocabulary, and learning and using these words effectively can help readers to get better grades, score higher on tests, and communicate more confidently at work.
