Reviews
"Reading through her text lesson after lesson, I am impressed by fresh formulations, lucid explanations, fine exercises—all done intelligently and based on solid linguistic knowledge. There is nothing available which can even compare with it. . . . The book will be a major contribution to the teaching of Hebrew in this country."
