121.New Hart's Rules: The Handbook of Style for Writers and Editors (Reference) from: OUP Oxford September 22, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £12.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.09 You Save: £3.90 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £6.99
Yes it isn't an update to the original Harts, so on that basis it loses a star due to OUP's re-use of the brand for something new. Judging the book on its own merits, it is concise, clear, compact and reasonably authoritative. I would also say it goes wider than some style guides and looks at overall composition of a book (not all of which would be relevant to an author). It also covers a very broad range of written material as you would expect from OUP, including mathematics, indexing, tables, captions and so forth. Having had a lot of exposure to composition this is I would say written from the write point of view - I just need to find an second hand copy to satisfy my nostalgia for the original!

124.Egyptian Arabic (Lonely Planet Phrasebook) by: Siona Jenkins May 01, 2008

This is an excellent little book. Don't be misled by its diminuitive size it is a 'Tardis' of information, words and phrases. Instantly usable by beginners and the more experienced foreigner to Arabic alike. Very good value for money.

125.Harraps French Grammar (Harrap's French Study Aids) by: Harrap September 16, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £4.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £2.99 You Save: £2.00 (40%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £0.75
I bought this because it's an Open University set book, but I needn't have bothered. Although it is excellent, it's no better than the grammar book I already owned. Moreover, my tutor has only referred me to a specific section once in the first five months of this eight-month course. Even then, the relevant information was easy to find in my other grammar book. The one advantage I can see for this book is its size. It would fit easily in a day-bag or large pocket when travelling.

As a poor punctuator I love this book because it has finally taught me what I should have been doing all along. It is an essential aid to consistency and I feel my work looks more polished as a result of following its guidelines. Great!

128.French Language Builder(Michel Thomas Series) [AUDIOBOOK] by: Michel Thomas January 01, 1900

I commented on a previous review, then realised I hadn't reviewed this myself, despite giving 5 stars to both the Advanced course and 4 to the Foundation course. The reason I forgot was that I DID look over this BEFORE I used the Advanced course, having bought them together, and this being shorter. Wait, in my opinion. This Language Builder is where Thomas goes over many useful and common words and phrases VERY quickly, so there's a lot in the 2 hours. Using the booklet helps a lot, as you can read what you're hearing and visualise it. A problem I'm seeing in some reviews is that some seem to have missed the Advanced course, which does cover past and future tenses very well. The lack of emphasis on 'tu' against 'vous' is due to ...

This is great... backed up with other learning materials, you get an expansive vocab quickly. Now I have read one review for the Italian version, by the same author saying that it is a palaver learning the Italian word, associating it with and english word... this just demonstrates a severe lack of imagination, and brain power. The method is simple, and with perseverence works wel.. Look at the word, and got with the scene given to you by the author to help you remember it.. Give it colours, smells, feeling and the more you do, the easier you will remember... if the scene given does not work, then choose your own... Think of it, picture it for 10 seconds, and then move on to the next. You will be amazed at how quickly you ... Read More:
