Sin dudas, el mejor [Posted on 2007-01-11] Soy economista, por mi profesion suelo leer bastante libros y diarios, especificamente de economia y en ingles, tambien poseo varios diccionarios financieros pero los mismos son muy incompletos.
Lo considero el mejor, por que casi no hay un termino economico que no lo contenga. Con anterioridad a la compra, he tenido que recurrir a otros y muchas veces los terminos buscados no estaban.
Sin lugar dudas, mas alla de lo economico de su precio, por su contenido es el mejor.
Unappropriate but comprehensive [Posted on 2007-10-10] This is a jargon Spanish-English Dictionary with good coverage of business terms. However, the reality is that Spanish-speaking countries often use different terms for the same concept. To be useful, such a dictionary, in addition to just translating a term to the other language, should offer a brief definition, enough for a person to know if the term means what he wants to say. In the case that different terms exist for the same concept, it would be very helpful if the dictionary specified the country or countries that use each specific term. From the English side, which I am not familiar with, it could be that UK, Australia and the US have different terms too.. A dictionary that did not deal with such realities should better be called a Mexican Spanish-US English Dictionary..
Very informative [Posted on 2007-10-30] Super nice copy as described. Has so many things, just need to learn how to use it. Will be an excellent reference book for teaching English to non native speakers.
Outstanding Coverage of Business Terms [Posted on 2007-11-20] In my work I have to translate presentations and training materials which are filled with technical business terms such as "hard-core cartel," "overinvoicing," and "insider trading" from English to Spanish. I got this book to help out and it has far exceeded my expectations. Practically every term of art that I needed to find was there. If you are doing business doing business in a bilingual market, this book is an essential. I highly recommend it.
Veronica's Review [Posted on 2008-11-23] This was really helpful for a health insurance presentation I did. The only problem is that it is very "business" lingo oriented, obviously, so while the terms were all correct, if you're dealing with people who don't know the lingo, you still have to explain the terms to them in layman's language. This was not a huge problem as I have to do this for my English-speaking clients, too, so it wasn't exactly shocking or the book's "fault."
