This dictionary lists about 5,000 carefully selected characters in their 10,000-odd current readings and almost 70,000 compounds in current use, all with concise English definitions. The entries have also been scientifically arranged by a logical extension of the traditional radical system to make finding any given character almost foolproof, saving hours of time.
Awarded the 1969 Prize for the Society of the Promotion of International Cultural Relations, this is the most comprehensive dictionary of its kind.
