Title: This book will give you false information
Review: This book starts from the author's boast of how many languages he can "speak" and how talented he is. Then it starts giving you a tiny bit of information about each language that is almost useless. For example, he says, in Japanese section, "Like Chinese, Japanese conversation is fairly easy." which makes me laugh. It is absolutely not true, and I know that because I am a native Japanese speaker who has been teaching Japanese to Americans. Apparently he knows no Japanese and he mixed things up with his little knowledge about Chinese. Even though we share similar characters, speaking Chinese and Japanese are totally different.These information about each languages can be easily found if you just go to a bookstore and browse some dictionaries of foreign languages.If you really want to learn languages, don't buy this book unless you want to read about his useless boasts.
