- "Brewer's Dictionary of Modern Phrase and Fable focuses not just on the linguistic and cultural resonance of thousands of contemporary words and phrases (the 'phrase' component), but also on the riches of the modern verbal imagination as expressed in a host of titles, characters and allusions from cultural arenas as diverse as cinema, books, art, music, sport, TV, comic strips and computer games (the 'fable' component)." "This is a fully revised and updated second edition, with a new team of editors, John Ayto and Ian Crofton. The original text has been polished and supplemented and a generous quantity of new material added."--BOOK JACKET.
