This book is extremely accessible to the non-Spanish speaker, as well as to the mangling 'spanglish' speakers that we SoCal's are famous for here in San Diego. The lessons are presented in a logical order and fit together well so that what you've learned on Wednesday will be a building block for Friday's class. A person could probably buy this book and without too much difficulty learn Spanish without the formality of a classroom, if the desire to learn is strong. The only element I would change would be to add pictures/definitions (similar to a beginner's dictionary, for example), as I am a visual learner. This is a minor gripe in the context of the entire book, however. I am finding this book very helpful.
