It is a great treasury of the English words derived from Latin and Greek roots. A unique feature of the book is that it also lists, wherever applicable, the Hindi words which come from the same ancestor root as the English words being discussed. These Hindi-English relations will often make you go “wow!”  \nThe book is divided into 23 chapters. Each chapter has a particular theme. All the roots which are related to a chapter’s theme are discussed in it. For example, the subject of Chapter 1 is ‘God and his creations.’ So the roots discussed in this chapter include the Latin and Greek words for God, star, earth, mountain, stone, water, man, woman and different animals.  \nEvery difficult word is written in bold and its meaning is usually given as a footnote on the same page. If you see a word in bold that does not have a footnote, please go to the index at the end of the book. The index will give you the page number where the word has been defined.  \nYou will also find many stories in each chapter. Each story incorporates some difficult words. The idea is to make learning new words a fun experience for you. Moreover, words learnt through stories stick in the mind.  \nYou can study th","cbCailZOTlsG1i6l","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailZOTlsG1i6l","pdf",5735358,435,"English","# Abbreviations\n# Preface\n# Acknowledgements\n# About the book\n# Chapter 1 God and his creations\n# Chapter 2 Birth of man\n# Chapter 3 All that is new Becomes old; all that is born must die\n# Chapter 4 Matters ofthe head and the heart\n# Chapter 5 Knowledge and wisdom\n# Chapter 6 I see!\n# Chapter 7 I speak!\n# Chapter 8 Hands, feet, ears and back\n# Chapter 9 Touch and sensitivity\n# Chapter 10 Roti, kapda aur Makaan\n# Chapter 11 All work and no play\n# Chapter 12 Moving about\n# Chapter 13 To move up, after or to the side\n# Chapter 14 Postures\n# Chapter 15 Strength and the use of strength\n# Chapter 16 Stretch, spread and close\n# Chapter 17 The good and the bad\n# Chapter 18 Light and dark\n# Chapter 19 Oneself and the others\n# Chapter 20 People and their governments\n# Chapter 21 On Cutting and joining\n# Chapter 22 Quantities and values\n# Chapter 23 Miscellany\n# Bibliography\n# Index","[{\"question\":\"How does the book help students learn GRE/CAT/GMAT vocabulary effectively?\",\"answer\":\"It uses a root-based approach focused on Latin and Greek origins, organizing related vocabulary into thematic chapters.
