This review is from: Kanji in Context: A Study System for Intermediate and Advanced Learners (Inter-University Center for Japanese Language Studies Workbook, Volume 1) (Paperback)

This is an excellent text. As you progress through the lessons, kanji that have been learned in prior lessons are reviewed. Additionally, the language used is that of the well-educated in Japan. It was intended as a an introductory course for those heading into graduate studies or other employment requiring highly articulate skills in Japanese.

One caveat is that you should probably learn how to write the kanji themselves before you attempt this course. If you have already completed, for example, Book I of 'Remembering the Kanji' by Heisig, then you will have the level of kanji necessary to retain the heavy load of vocabulary expected by 'Kanji in Context'.
