HEAD OR TAIL, IT COUNTS
Yes, this edition of the "Oxford Spanish Dictionary" did cut the mustard. It is a quality lexicon which Oxford University Press crafted with both care and patience.
A true descendant of the unabridged version, this healthy scion boasts of more than 170,000 headwords and phrases. Each entry was defined using contemporary translation. Whether you are an English speaker who is learning Spanish or vice-versa, this is a dependable tool to keep at hand. It counts: whether head or tail! And, it used the simplest illustrations to explain the meanings of its headwords.
Almost everything about this lexicon is positive. Given its reasonable price-tag, I did not find any serious offence to accuse it of. I will recommend it for both teachers and students. Professional translators and advanced-level teachers should go for the more versatile unabridged version.

Serious about Spanish? Don't forget these books...
Very, very good.I am bilingual, and I use this dictionary frequently.It is helpful that all of the reference information in the Spanish-English side is in Spanish, even if the same info appears in the English section (for instance, the section on "telephone language" in the English side appears as "telefonear" in the Spanish side.This just illustrates the completeness of this book.

If you are studying Spanish, I recommend that you purchase 3 books in addition to your curriculum: The Oxford Spanish Dictionary; A New Reference Grammar of Modern Spanish; and 501 Spanish Verbs, if you need that last one.The Oxford Spanish Dictionary is simply the definitive Spanish-English dictionary.The New Reference Grammar is invaluable for its completeness and incredible ease of use.The 501 Spanish Verbs can be helpful if you find yourself remembering things like "errar is irregular," but you just can't remember how.

The front cover is not the same
I received the dictionary but the front cover does not look like the one showed in the internet site. In Short, I don't have the certainty that I received the dictionary which I pay for, but it is very complete and excellent anyway.
