2.0 out of 5 stars
Worst French language book.,
By L from Denver "lreader." (Denver, CO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Debuts (Student Edition) + Listening Comprehension Audio CD (Hardcover)
I have taken 2 French classes and they both used this book. One of the authors is a professor at my university which is why it is required. I found it to be both dull and uninformative. Also, the movie that accompanies the book is very cheesy and dated (in my opinion).

There are better books out there,
By Kev "zimkaiwen" (Boston, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Debuts (Student Edition) + Listening Comprehension Audio CD (Hardcover)
I used this book in introductory French. It is tied directly to a movie that is supposedly about French culture...the movie is soap opera and does not help you learn any more French than would interactive classroom activities and real French cinema. The movie is supposed to detail diversity in French; however, a trip to Maroc is as diverse as it gets. My guess is that the authors didn't want to expose intro students to the real facts behind French colonialism and why it is a global language.
