This book is exactly what I needed. It has positive and negative examples: what to do and what not to do. I've already studied Chinese for a while and as a self-taught language learner, this book addresses my particular written errors and points out more about Chinese than I had seen before. It has plenty of exercises with answers and a vocabulary list of the words in the book in the back and manages to teach some linguistic terms ( with a glossary at the back as well ) at the same time.To those just starting out I would say to buy the book anyway for two reasons: 1. If you are teaching yourself you will tend to buy books ahead of when they actually become useful anyway. This is not a 'beginner' book. 2. When it becomes useful, you can somewhat measure your progress by that benchmark and look ahead to understand sentences you may be encountering.Also, one of the pitfalls of teaching yourself something is that you tend to learn what you want to and ignore the things that are not immediately useful. Books like this force you to go back, after having armed you with some terminology and pick up the infrastructure you passed over in your rush to get the written portion of the language up and running and see your mistakes.I'm pretty much a master by now of how to learn a language for free. A mixture of anki, livemocha.com, downloading e-sword as biblical software ( which has bibles in almost any language you can name..) combined with downloading audio of those bibles from wordproject.(org?) to get reading and pronunciation practice gets you started and is extremely valuable even when you get 'advanced'. All of that is free. But at some point you need books like this to know how to take apart sentences.
