Rating: - I'd give it 10 stars if I could!
I'm completely amazed by how good this book is. As a writer of technical textbooks, I know how hard it is to get across such material concisely, completely and clearly. This book blows me away.

For just one example: I had been struggling for ages with "ce que" versus "que". I could never seem to figure out why "ce" was sometimes necessary. One ... Read More
Rating: - An Excellent French Grammer Text, not only for college students
This is a surprisingly good book, at a very cheap price.

Rating: - full of errors
The book covers a lot of material and will undoubtedly be useful to somebody who has already learned the material before (but might have forgotten it). Unfortunately, the book has many many errors, sometimes in crucial places, and many of the summarizing charts are poorly conceived and designed. I suppose it does make one think carefully in order to untangle the correct information from what is written.
