Cheng & Tsui

Cheng & Tsui Co. is a publisher of Asian language textbooks and resource materials to continue the worldwide presence of Asian language to language enthusiasts. My Mandarin language and social program utilize the «Integrated Chinese» Textbook Simplified Chinese, Third Edition, Part 1 to the fullest potential. Personally, I love the vocabulary, Chinese sentence structure and grammar formation, and the cultural background at the end of every chapter where informative. Instruction is in English with Simplified Chinese characters of corresponding English translation, which is very important to me for having no prior exposure to enable me to learn. The cast of characters in the book brings humor to learning without dead air. This book is specifically targeted to ABC (American Born Chinese) and Westerners who are genuinely interested in learning Mandarin.
Priced at the typical college textbook markup of $ 40.00 which does not include an audio CD.
