Title: Interesting and Motivating
Review: This book is a good read, and even gives you tips on learning languages. I thought the section on memorization was a little lengthy, but better too much info than not enough. There is also a list in the back of all the major languages with a million or more speakers. While not vital, its nice to know how many potential speakers you may be able to speak with when learning a language. The only problem with the list was that languages like Yiddish were excluded claiming that it is just an offshoot of German, but Afrikaans was included and it is an offshoot of Dutch. I also thought it might be helpful to go into language families a little more, but all in all, it is interesting.
Is the review positive or negative?
