This is the best dictionary I used in graduate school when working on a Ph.D. in Italian literature, and is the one I recommend to my students. The only drawback for English speakers is lack of assistance with pronunciation (in particular, which syllable receives the accent), but this is more than made up for by the excellent definitions and usage guides.
What an incredible book!

This dictionary is amoung the best I have ever seen. It always has the word I am looking for and is very clear as to what the meaning of the word is, the part of speech, and the gender. It is also very portable and travelable, being a paperback. It is worth the cash to own this book. Avete bisogno di questo dizionario!
