The tone is good and there are plenty of examples and exercises to choose from. Didn't know about the workbook. I'll have to get a copy. I usu. supplement the text with other stuff, mostly readings on language issues. dennis -- Dennis Baron debaron[AT SYMBOL GOES HERE]uiuc.edu Department of English 217-333-2392 University of Illinois fax: 217-333-4321 608 South Wright Street Urbana, Illinois 61801
