Find Best Price at Amazon"One of the things I hated when younger and studying Russian was the constant need to look up words in a dictionary but e-readers make looking up words so easy that I now find myself looking up more English words when reading, for a variety of reasons (not to miss a possibly subtle point by a great author, to see the etymology of a word, etc.). And as even the negative reviews have mentioned, if a word is not found using the integrated look up - the reason I and probably most others purchased it - words can still be found by manually searching."
"I find that this works quite well with my Kindle and my Android and iOS Kindle apps."
"I'm almost tempted to give it a 5 because it is so much better than the one that came with my kindle."
"I'm halfway through reading the first Harry Potter book in French, and this dictionary has found all but a handful of words."
"As many of us know, the fun of reading can disappear rather quickly when you're forced to put down the book and look up a word in the dictionary every two or three minutes. This version of the dictionary doesn't do a good job with words preceded by "d'" and "l'" --- but even then, you just press "Home" to put down the book, go into the French-English dictionary, and type the word you're looking for."
"I own a Basic Kindle and because this book is coded as being in English, it is not selectable as being a default French dictionary."
"A mistake."

Find Best Price at Amazon"Next I want to read a detective novel I'd tried before, I can't remember the name, which didn't have so good a translation in English, and try my hand at reading that one (it's free on librivox in voice and on gutenberg, though I can't right now recall what it's called. You still need to be familiar with a little grammar and sentence structure, and it helps to have a small paperback verb conjugation book, but other than that I think I'm pretty good to go to read Flaubert's Madame Bovary."
"I frequently read French on my Kindle, and the one-language French dictionary that comes with the Kindle doesn't always serve my purposes."
"The real help of this dictionary is seen when learning french on Kindle device where this can become the default dictionary .On kindle apps on android and Ipad this appears as a book limiting its utility."
"Apparently, not even Kindle Fire tablets let the reader set this dictionary as default...one can only do so on the Kindle e-readers."
"(I finally gave up on the dictionary and took photos of signage with my tablet so I could look up the words when I got home.)."
"I am using this Collins French to English Dictionary to translate some papers French - English - French."
"Alternatively, it might have to do with outdated words, but those missing words are in Kindle's built-in French-French dictionary, so I'm thinking that's not the issue."
"This new/improved version of the French-English dictionary is great for the Kindle."
* key learning points clearly indicated at the beginning of each chapter. * a rich selection of model texts from a variety of different media. Given the importance attached in higher education to the development of transferable skills, this is a vital selling point.'.

This first volume of the collection contains books 1 and 2 of the series: The City of Shifting Waters – in its original two-part, 9 pages longer format – and The Empire of a Thousand Planets. Jean-Claude Mézières and Pierre Christin created Valerian in 1967 after working in the USA together, one as a cowboy, the other a teacher.

Find Best Price at Amazon"Valerian (also referred to as ‘Valerian and Laureline’) is a space opera comic book created by the writer and artist team of Pierre Christin and Jean-Claude Mezieres. Timed to accompany the release of the feature film ‘Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets’ on July 21 here in the USA, 'Valerian: The Complete Collection Volume 1' compiles English language translations of the four initial episodes of Valerian serialized in ‘Pilote’: ‘Bad Dreams’ (1967), ‘The City of Shifting Waters’ and ‘Earth in Flames’ (both 1970), and ‘The Empire of a Thousand Planets’ (1971). This does not mean that Valerian, like many of the comics published in ‘Pilote’, cannot be enjoyed by adults; many of the strips that appeared in the magazine have since have become comic book classics, like ‘Asterix’, ‘Lone Sloane’, and ‘Blueberry’. If you're someone who is less familiar with the Eurocomics scene, someone more at ease with US and UK sci-fi comics like ‘Star Wars’, ‘Star Trek’, or ‘2000 AD’, or more modern series like ‘Black Science’ or ‘Saga’, then Valerian may or may not be your cup of tea..........looking at a digital comic or two may be a good way to gauge whether you'll find Valerian rewarding, and whether you should spring for ‘The Complete Collection’."
"Beautifully printed."
"The book starts out a bit silly and naive, but it is fun."
"the cool thing about the gifts you get for people you live with is that you get to enjoy them too ;) this was a gift for my partner - he'd actually wanted to get the individual comics, but there are just so many*, and with some unavailable it was hard to even know where to start. (and pricey, too.). which is to say, if you put this on a coffee table with the cover side up, the title on the spine is upside down. (at first i thought it possible that we got a misprinted one, but the "#1" being printed right side up suggests it was meant to be this way for some reason.)."

Mais pour atteindre cet état d'éveil nous devons arriver à comprendre que nous sommes nous-mêmes les créateurs de notre propre souffrance. Pour entreprendre ce périple vers le pouvoir du moment présent, il nous faut laisser derrière nous notre esprit analytique et le faux moi qu'il a créé, c'est-à-dire l'ego. Si nous réussissons à être totalement dans ici-maintenant et à faire chaque pas dans le moment présent, si nous réussissons aussi à vraiment appréhender les réalités que sont notre corps énergétique, le lâcher-prise, le pardon et le non-manifeste, nous saurons nous ouvrir au pouvoir transformateur de l'instant présent.
