Ratings and reviews

I love this book in physical form. Period. Ebook is not usefully made as per my understanding for learning. As this book is an activity book, you need to use pencil to try and correct yourself. That helps in learning and retention of subject. I was tempted to buy for 39 INR as an offer but after going through the sample I decided not to buy it when its not helpful even on a deal. Buy a physical book it would be around 90 INR it helps to learn. I only suggest this book in ebook form if your idea is to casually read. May be in future if some one makes an interactive book based on this that would be helpful.

It can be much more tech oriented for an app! Would not mind spending more if it had mcq where I can choose answers and the app would validate my answers instead of me having to do it manually! Also, pronunciation can be given by audio. Please make more use of technology and bring two way interaction through this app. I own the hard copy and love the book. Respect for Norman Lewis.

Just bought this book paying the amount but still showing sample copy in my library.. Again asking to buy.. don't know whom to contact
