Book summary

What is a subordinate clause? A neologism? A phrasal-prepositional verb? Need to remember the definition of a participial adjective? Or of a collocation? Based on Oxford's international best-seller The Oxford Dictionary of English Grammar, this convenient and accessible dictionary covers all the accepted grammatical terms and concepts used in English today (as well as some of the old traditional names) to make answering such questions easy.
The straightforward A-Z format of The Little Oxford Dictionary of English Grammar makes finding topics quick and simple, and its 20 tables bring together related terms to show how grammar functions as a system. In addition, the plentiful examples throughout make grammatical ideas easy to grasp, giving guidance as well as definitions.
For school, home, or office, this compact resource is both a simple introduction and a lasting reference to the rules that govern the English language. [via]
