This nifty "little blue book" (as it is known in Assyriology ciricles) is an indispensible tool for students of Akkadian (from Old Akkadian to the Late Babylonian), whether as a quick reference, or for translating long passages of Akkadian texts. It has the advantage of being light and handy, and many entries are furnished with references to semantic variations based on the different dialects.

However, in being concise, the dictionary chose to omit those lengthy lexical references which are presented in the bulky volumes of the CAD (in English) or AhW (in German, on which this dictionary is based), thus rendering an interpretation of texts based solely on this book somewhat unreliable. Yet this drawback has not prevented many aspiring Akkadian scholars from secretly using it whenever no one is looking!!

A favorite amongst students ever since its first publication - highly recommended for any Akkadian students beyond the beginner level!
