Summary: Briolliant book .... The Best on the market
Comment: I have read a variety of books on the Thai language in my year in Thailand and this is the only book I've been able to make a real improvement in my Thai with.
In my ex pat community EVERYONE agreed that this is the best book to learn from. Oh and one tip for your studies, learn to read Thai Script it will accelerate your learning and help in real world situations.
I hope you have as much fun with Thai and Thailand as I did. Good Luck!!

Summary: How this compares with other thai books
Comment: As the owner of 8 different Thai language books, this one sits squarely in the middle. The real benefit to this book is that it gives you a large vocabulary. However, rote learning of words is not my idea of inspiration but at least this is offset by the use of cd's to achieve it.
The second book in the series is much more useful once you have the ideas in this mastered.
The attempt to teach writing in thai by doing dot-to-dots is of little to no use.
On the whole, it is useful but just a bit dull if you need a little stimulation to get you going.

Summary: A excellent book for any one serious about learning Thai
Comment: Having tried many different textbooks this one has it all. It is perfect for those serious about learning the language, and gives a full understanding into the beautiful Thai language including the mysterious alphabet. Unlike other textbooks it assumes the reader knows nothing and by focusing on the four basic language skills, reading, writing, speaking and listening (with cassette support) one can progress quickly. Learning from these first principles has the advantage of moving the reader away from the shortcomings and inconsistency that a transliteration system gives as soon as possible. The clear presentation, to the point lessons, and self-testing aids make learning varied. The layout is easy to navigate and well structured, your Thai friends will easily be able to help you. The author, coming from a wealth of interpreting experience does not make the mistake of trying to teach too much, but gives the reader all they need to be understood. She uses modern concise language, and takes account of colloquial pronunciation. This readers copy, somewhat dog eared now after being taken up and down Thailand has certainly greatly helped one person to gain an understand of Thai people and the fascinating culture.
