This textbook has helped me understand so much more than anything I've ever had. It gradually exposes the reader to vocabulary while keeping its focus on grammar. It also requires that you write a paragraph in each section which helps immensely in reinforcing what you have learned. This textbook is for the beginner to intermediate level. I recommend this wonderful resource. I have rented this book from ecampus, the book was in the condition it was said and I am extremely satisfied with dealing with ecampus.
