Title: One Horrible Attempt to Teach Japanese
Review: Given the complexity of the language you would think the book would want to make it as easy as possible to learn the language but it doesn't. It starts with a few basic phrases in romaji. Then it jumps straight to sentence structures. You are expected to just know the Hiragana and Katakana when you start chapter 1. The whole "Getting Started" Section is a waste of time. You don't remember words that you learned as romaji when you see them later in the book as hiragana. Besides it's horrible "flow" of how you learn the language it's explainations are so bad that without a professor that is very fluent in english it is almost impossible to understand what they are trying to say. If this book isn't a required text for your College class then don't buy it. Buy some Kodo comic books that are in japanese and english instead. You'll learn more from them then this book.
