    <![CDATA[<em>Genki</em> outlines in 23 structured lessons all the  fundamentals of the Japanese language. Abundantly illustrated and  containing a wide variety of exercises, <em>Genki</em> is sure to bring vigor  to your classroom! Though primarily meant for use in college-level  classes, it is also a good guide for independent learners and is a  nice resource book for teachers of Japanese. Genki's authors teach at  Kansai Gaidai University, which hosts the largest number of North  American students spending their junior year in Japan.]]>

However, I did find that it was lacking in the explanation sections for Hiragana and Katakana.
