My acid test for language learning books actually has two parts: 1) it has to tell you how to say "Do you speak English?" because sometimes you're rushing out the door and that's all you have time for, and 2) it has to give you a FUCKING pronunciation key. This is an academic book, and so the latter failure is even more egregious. But it looks decent overall and gives lots of good descriptive information on Dutch for the structurally inclined.

A Reference Grammar of Dutch is aimed at English-speaking students of Dutch at beginner/intermediate level. It is designed to be practical and user-friendly: grammatical information is presented in short entries arranged in alphabetical order, allowing students to gain easy access to specific points of grammar or problematic points of vocabulary as they encounter them in practice. Each grammatical rule is illustrated by simple, everyday Dutch examples of the kind likely to be encountered and used by the learner. Specialised linguistic terminology is kept to a minimum, with a glossary of essential terms provided, and charts and tables are included to help the student focus on the main points. Each entry is linked to a set of exercises which are graded according to complexity, and there is a key to the exercises at the back of the book. A thorough index is also provided.
