Not up to OED standards

I purchased this dictionary to replace another dictionary. I have had a compact OED in my home since I was a child, and hoped my daughters would also learn the value of a good dictionary. However, this dictionary has the same flaws as the dictionary I was replacing. In fact, several of the definitions are identical to those in the other dictionary. Many of the definitions use the word or at least a form of the word being defined. Using the word itself creates a circular reference that is completely useless when attempting to understand the meaning. Often, a definition is included without agreement to the part of speech of the entry. I do not allow my grammar school children to define words in this manner; for a dictionary, especially one claiming to be the OED, this is appalling. To paraphrase Paula Cole or Pete Seeger, where have all the editors gone?
