Helped my wife in her studies
This was a gift for my wife and although I cannot offer too many specifics, it appears to have greatly helped her in her Arabic studies. If you have a family member or friend who is studying Arabic, this may be an ideal gift.

I wish I could offer more input on the content, but since I'm not knowledgeable about the alphabet, I can only provide information on how helpful the material was for my spouse.

i would definitely recommend
i really like this book. the writer teaches you some very important basics and he does it in a way that a friend would. the book is thin and lightweight so the thought of getting through it isnt depressing! Basically you read the book and get the basics and all thats left is practice practice practice! Also helpful to buy some audio lessons in arabic to hear exactly how the leeters should be pronounced.

A real help to a a learner of Arabic
It is an immensely useful book for self study. Here's a professionel linguistic and pedagogical guidance towards surmounting the barrier the Arabic alphabet presents to an English speaking westerner. It's OK there's no sound cd.First priority being reading and possibly writing.
However it would be nice with a little more reading stuff for practice at the end of the book. Thank you for that book.
