Courte biographie
[excerpted from Montreal Gazette online obituary]
Corbeil headed the linguistic department of what was then referred to as the Office de la langue française from 1971 to 1977, participating in the development of the Loi sur la langue officielle du Québec in 1974 and the drafting of the Charte de la langue française in 1977.

Along with linguist Ariane Archambault, Corbeil also conceived and designed the first edition of the Dictionnaire visuel in 1986, which was distributed in more than 100 countries and translated into more than 35 languages.

As with most visual dictionaries, this is limited in its coverage of abstract nouns and other word classes, but it is a good reference for concrete nouns. It is well illustrated, with coloured drawings throughout and lists of the words in each of the five languages for each thing illustrated. For the languages other than English, the gender is shown but no other information (e.g. how to form plurals). There are indexes of all the words illustrated in each language, which is handy if you want to look up something specific, but I find this book works best for browsing and I would probably tend to reach for one of my more traditional dictionaries if I wanted to look up a particular word.… (plus d'informations)

5000 French (and English) words with colorful and instructive diagrams. The book covers a wide variety of techology and science areas. Too much to memorize in a reading, but provides either a nice reference and/or provides some familiarity.
