Have any new language-learning manuals been published in the past ten years based on his principles, or on similar ones?
Or any dictionaries? I thought I had seen a dictionary 'Using English' (Cambridge Univ. Press), but I cannot find it anymore... I did find lots of dictionaries having Roget in their title, but are they based on his division/ structure then? Are any better than others ?

I'm curious to know what you mean by his principles. The only non-scientific work I know from him is his thesaurus, of which there are plenty.

I think (thought) he has organisational principles, some kind of thematic principles, allowing for lots of cross-references and bringing them together under several headings, in semantic groups.
My questions: - which thesaurus could be better, or more up-to-date ? BTW: I do not think there is a Roget thesaurus for Dutch (or a thesaurus inspired on his principles ;-))... - has that structure ever inspired language-learning [in-]directly?
