It is one thing to learn Chinese in a classroom because you have to, it is another thing to learn Chinese because you want to learn it. Learning by route memorization is no match for learning by "going out" memorization. If you want to spend years learning enough Chinese to read a Chinese book, but in the meantime, if what you really want to do is go out into a Chinese community and find your way around, there is no other better way to do it then by reading this book. I use it when I'm in China where I am all alone with no guide, and it is tremendously helpful. I can't read a newspaper yet, but a newspaper isn't for communicating to other people with or getting around town by yourself. Besides, in China, people are more interested in your social skills then your know-it-all skills.
