Good book for basics of English grammar. Each exercise helps us learning process. I suggest those who are bad in English use this book. you will definitely find it not only easy but very very helpful.English is an International language and today it is a compulsory requirement of each one of us to have a command in English at least we understand it. so if you have a poor English just go through this book it will give you amazing change in your English knowledge. --Priti agrawal on Sep 19, 2012

Raymond Murphy uses a very modern and different methodology of language teaching. This book does not follow a traditional grammar approach. All research points towards teaching language skills in real contexts not the grammar (structure) itself. I'm using this book to teach English grammar to my son who is in class two. He is enjoying the book so much that he looks forward to every evening to catch up with me for the next lesson. His spoken English has improved vastly with the help of this book. The book is intuitively organized to readily facilitate assimilation of English fundamentals for speaking or writing. I highly recommend this book to everyone. Cheers....
