Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The Firefly Visual Dictionary is an unparalleled reference to the world around us. With more than 6,000 color illustrations -- each one labeled in detail -- The Firefly Visual Dictionary shows what other dictionaries can only describe; from the parts of a honeybee to the parts of a bulldozer. Its scope and depth is immense. Everyone will find sections that will catch their eye whether they need to quickly research an assignment, track down a contested fact or simply browse through the drawings. Each key word and phrase is connected to the detailed illustrations, all are organized into a series of sections and are fully indexed.
