German For Dummies, (with CD) (For Dummies (Language & Literature)) ReviewThis book fails on so many levels it's hard to know where to begin. For starters, the alphabet is never formally introduced with German letter equivalents, scotching the possibility that you'll ever have to spell something over the phone. The book then attempts to vomit up all the German grammar you'll ever need, even though at this point the reader barely knows any words, let alone whole sentences. For the reader who knows no German, the sample sentences in the chapters that follow contain far too many words which are never defined. Apparently the authors believe that the beginner is better served by parroting back whole sentences instead of actually learning vocabulary. The "mini-dictionary" in the back of the book is some editor's idea of a bad joke, and contains almost none of the words I've ever looked up from the book's own sample sentences. The CD, while useful, only demonstrates selected dialogues from the book, and ignores many key phrases that might be more practical.
To put things in perspective, I consider this book even more unreadable than the 2nd edition of O'Reilly's Programming Perl.German For Dummies, (with CD) (For Dummies (Language & Literature)) Overview
