Editorial Reviews

Review

"As far as I am concerned, among all the first year manuals I am familiar with, INVITATION does the best job in giving a real and practical comprehensive introduction to the whole francophone world. As universities in the United States increasingly reshape their programs around the notion of cultural diversity and globalization, administrators and colleagues around the country will embrace that aspect of the book."

"The Info-culture sections seem to be much richer than the typical culture ‘blurbs’ found in many textbooks."

". . .the new CHEZ NOUS pre- and post-reading activities are terrific. Without them, this section may have sparked interest in very motivated students, but now there is some reason for everybody to look."

"[I am] favorably impressed by the authors’ desire to update the cultural information, to present current language usage, to re-sequence certain grammatical presentations and to include pronunciation exercises in each chapter."

"I am most attracted by programs that use the internet effectively to reinforce authentic situations and lead to interactive activities in class. This text does a nice job of this."


Product Description

Helps students acquire proficiency in communicating within culturally-significant contexts, inviting students to examine and appreciate differences and similarities among individuals and cultures in an interconnected world.

4.0 out of 5 stars used French book, October 11, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The book is in pretty good condition. There's some writing, but the notes are helpful. Unfortunately this book is missing the first disc, but has the second one. The book is in tact and has no ripped or missing pages :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for learning beginning French, October 9, 2007
By Luke Barker "Luke Barker" (Salt Lake City, UT) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I used this book for a college introductory course and it was much better than any that I had ever used in high school. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to learn french. The cd was also very helpful in helping me to learn how to pronounce.
