This book, like all our other books in the In Use series, is the result o fthe work o fmany
people. Cambridge University Press editors, reviewers, designers, marketing staff,sales and
publicity staffhave all contributed their advice and expertise, and there are just too many to
name individually here. Particular thanks must, however, go to the following two people at
Cambridge University Press: N6irin Burke, whose expertise and vision have guided us
throughout the writing o fthis book, and Martine Walsh,who has steered the project from its
beginnings through to publication with consistent insight and thoroughness. W eare very
grateful to them both. W ealso owe a great deal to the Cambridge University Press
lexicographers who worked with the Cambridge International Corpus to produce the
Cambridge International Dictionary of Phrasal Verbs. W edrew heavily on the database o fthis
dictionary when selecting verbs to include in this book and when compiling the Mini dictionary
at the back o fthis book.
W ehave also received invaluable feedback from both teacher and student reviewers. Their
comments have had a great influence on the final manuscript and we are very grateful to them.
In particular we would like to thank the following teachers, students and institutions from all
over the world who reviewed and piloted the material throughout its development:
