This edition consists of three volumes - a review grammar, a cultural reader and a literary reader - that are co-ordinated by theme and by language, chapter by chapter, across all three books. The organization means that the topics, the language and the structures covered in, for example, Chapter Three of the review grammar are the same as those covered in Chapter Three of either the cultural or literary reader. This format allows instructors to use any of the texts by themselves or in conjunction with one another.
