A '''thesaurus''' lists [[synonym]]s and [[antonym]]s of index words.  Peter Mark Roget published the first thesaurus, ''Thesaurus of English Words and Phrases'' in the 1850s, and current editions have become known simply as ''Roget's'' or ''Roget's Thesaurus'' <ref>http://www.beyondbooks.com/law81/1j.asp</ref>. Most thesauruses (or thesauri) list index words alphabetically like a [[dictionary]], but Roget organized the words topically.
