4.0 out of 5 stars Useful mostly for the beginner, October 3, 2002
By Ed Austin "austin_ed" (Moscow, Russia) - See all my reviews
As an earlier reviewer quite rightly states, once the rules of verb conjugation are learnt, this books usefulness becomes more of a "lazy persons russian verb conjugator".

However, I still purchased it, primarily because of helping me master conjugation by "visualizing" the tables. Russian Verb conjugation isn't Rocket science, but it's still a pain to learn.

If this book consisted of totally irregular verbs it would be extremely useful though and perhaps a better choice for an intermediate russian student.

Thus definitely recommended for a beginning serious Russian student but will be outgrown once you gain confidence.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good but a few problems, December 11, 1999
By A Customer
On the whole, this is a good reference for beginning or intermediate students of Russian to have. However, in keeping with Beyer's teaching methods (he's a professor at my college), it often ignores complexities of the language for fear of confusing the reader. In most cases, this is not a problem, but there is at least one exception. There are russian imperfective verbs which have multiple perfective forms, and he only lists one, which might make you think it was the only one. People in one of my classes tried to use it to say that they'd cut themselves shaving and burnt their tongues drinking coffee, and instead ended up saying that they'd completely chopped themselves up while shaving and burnt their tongues to a crisp. So there are problems with the book. But it is certainly a useful reference.

5.0 out of 5 stars Learn your Conjugations!!, April 1, 2004
By Blah (New York, New York) - See all my reviews
If you are serious about studying a foreign language, the most important thing you can do is learn to conjugate verbs correctly. Russian is no exception to this rule. This book is an excellent tool for anyone who has trouble with conjugation. Each verb is fully conjugated with perfective and imperfective forms, as well as past and future tenses. More than any other reference book this one will help you to drastically improve your speaking abilities.
