Review:

"The grammar sections are excellent...The cultural readings and literary readings are right on--I think both the students and I find them interesting and approachable."

"What I enjoy the most with INTERACTION is the themes chosen that bring to the classroom socio-cultural topics of great interest to the students."

"I like the way INTERACTION incorporates the vocabulary in the exercises throughout the chapters. In addition, I feel that the grammar exercises are designed to promote oral and written practice. Those features are appealing to me and could help an instructor teach the text with greater facility."
