It is a compilation of some simply strategies that can be used when trying to speak the japanese language.
Divided in "13 secrets"! The name is a bit funny since they are not so secret at all and a kind of common sense for any language student.
The book is interesting owever as a means of reviewing, specially if what you are looking for is mainly to be able to speak some japanese and cause some impression on your audience.
I would not qualify it as a serious study about the japanese language and I don't recomend it if what you are looking forward is a serious study of the japanese grammar. You will not find it here.
If you already have some knowledge of the language and want to learn a few strategies to go a step foward then it may be of some interest. ( )
