4 out of 5 stars good resource for university tutors   June 30, 2006
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is an excellent book for degree-level students. It has varied themes and materials and good authentic listening material. Its strength is in language manipulation exercises rather than 'straight' grammar exercises, but this is why it is suitable only for degree-level. The level of language used and expected is very high, and all grammar notes are in French. It deals well with register and advanced structures.

It has interesting sections on the press, the Internet, translating and interpreting, young people's attitudes, humour, women's rights, and applying for a job.

Unfortunately, as it was published in 2000 it still deals in Francs, which will instantly date it for today's students. Another criticism could be that it is a little dry or too 'intense'. But I would say it is still a worthwhile resource if you are looking for materials which will really stretch your students.
