The final textbook for Advanced Comp!
I have to say, we did do a little bit more work out of this book vs. the other one.
I also liked how at the end of each passage, they included exercises. We went over the exercises in class.
The one thing this book could have done better is introducing some of the terms. They sort of threw things in like we already knew what they meant.
