Title: excellent but too advanced for beginners
Review: I ordered this book for my college students since I didn't want to be tied to a textbook but wanted a back up grammar. The grammar section is wonderful for those of us who love grammar and want to learn more little details, check out obscure references, etc., or even for those grammarians who want to compare Spanish grammar to the grammar of another language. It is not the best thing for brand new learners. The explanations are a little advanced for them and there are no exercises or ways to practice.The dictionary is very complete, but often uses the root word and you have to be skilled enough to understand what the other forms are and you have to know parts of speech. While this may not seem much of a challenge, it is very confusing for beginners, especially since many of today's students do not know parts of speech (even struggling with nouns vs. verbs) in English.Bottom line: I do recommend this book, but make sure it fits your needs.
