This leading introductory Italian text features a balanced, flexible four-skills approach to communicative competency, cultural awareness, and language structures.
- The grammar has been modified, primarily in the second half of the text, to integrate topics from the final two lessons, and move advanced topics to the appendix. Possessive adjectives and the partitive have been moved to the first half in response to user suggestions.
- Lesson themes have been revised to include the cinema and incorporate politics earlier in the book. Also, lesson dialogues and cultural notes have been updated.
Customer Review: Great
This used book was in great condition. There were no marks or writing on the pages. One thing to keep in mind is the shipping time. It took longer than I thought it would; about 1.5 weeks. But, the seller was good about keeping in contact and making sure that I received the book. It was a great purchase overall.
Customer Review: Disjointed, but accurate, which is most important
This Italian book is accurate and engaging. I highly recommend it. The only reason this is not a five-star recommendation is because of two reasons. First the price, it's over $80 for the book, which is very expensive, and second to get the most out of the book, you would need to bounce around the chapters, read them out-of-order. For example, some examples in the early chapters introduce grammar that is not taught until later chapters. Some people can proactively figure things out, but not everyone can. But in comparison to other italian language books, this is the best.
