I have owned this book for many years, and I consider it to be a real gem for the absolute beginner. Unlike most books I have seen, the Arabic font is actually large enough to be read without a magnifying glass. Moreover, concepts learned here seem to stick! My only complaint: I am a beginner in Arabic, and I cannot determine whether this book is Modern Standard Arabic, or a regional tongue such as Eastern, Egyptian or Gulf Arabic. Usually, the student is told up front in the preface. Whatever it is, it is certainly well organized. Highly recommended!
