Title: Too expensive.
Product review: I read this book almost form back to back, nice reading material, simple and accessible, plus a little knowledge of modern french society. That said, I have to mention its price, it's a thin book that doesn't require a lot of energy to write, and nothing irreplaceable, same kind of thing you can read as much as you want in internet. And if you don't like look at the screen, there's plenty of books at less than one-fifth of the price, like Dover's parallel text, or Penguin's, or Mcgraw-hill's 'Easy french reading' and 'Better french reading', non of these is in any way inferior for reading. As for learning, 'French in action' is for superior for pedagogical purpose. I can only think that too many lazy french instructors use this as textbook, so as to give the publisher and authors a chance to rob our students. I am disgusted, even though it's a helpful book, it can be written by anyone. Nothing special about it.
