Reviews for Basic Russian: A Grammar and Workbook

'I very much like the arrangement of the units by functions, which is a real innovation in this type of textbook and gets away from the hackneyed arrangement by parts of speech ... I hope to see a second edition in the future.' - Rusistika 'Basic Russian has some original exercises, which teachers might usefully incorporate into their teaching programmes.' - M.A. Felstead, Sherborne School for Girls
