Great Job

The product was better than expected. It was delivered in record time. Great job.

an excellent book, especially if you're professor is as good

This is an excellent book for beginners. The long lists of vocabulary are no doubt beneficial in the beginning stages of learning German. The book does a good job of pushing you to the max in terms of learning new material, especially if your professor requires you to know every last detail of each chapter. The cultural information and pictures do a good job of presenting modern day Germany, as well. I would most definitely recommend this book to any beginner.

Good Beginner book

This is a good book for those who want to teach themselves about the german language. also i belive it allows for good insite into the german culture and customs. Maybe not the best book for practical german language, but for the beginner its great!

Pretty Good, but a few shortcomings.

I used this book for two semesters of German language courses in college. While its not a bad book, the memorization of tables and stuff can be daunting. I thought the descriptions were precise and clear, and the grammar exercises were okay. The problem was the application of grammar was too 'precise'. Ie. there was the constant memorization of tables. This book is ideal for an engineer. Overall, its also a good reference book and is well laid out. A nice touch was the culture topics; however, I would have liked to see something focusing a bit more on conversational practice.

A wonderful book

This is a very good book,very helpful in studeing of the German language
