Customer Reviews
Buy it! It's the best there is for the moment.
The colloquial series is often let down by it's academic style but this book comes closer to the Teach yourself format and I don't think it can be beaten as a beginners course. It's up todate and it's interestingly written. The only bad thing are the comprehension texts. There is no translation of them and they are repeated on the recording. Why repeat when you can rewind and I would have referred to hear some recordings of some other things in the chapters. The upcoming teach yourself book may be better but until then this is the best book there is if you require something more than a phrase book and want to hear what you are reading.
A good language course
This is a good language course, and it contains a very helpful guide to the persian variant of the arabic script, which is easy to use and makes it a lot easier to learn to read and write persian.
