Review by Kenton Green

I can now read Japanese articles in my field, and this book started me on that path. It is also a great reference.

Review by Jimmy Hsu

I found that an excellent book for its very analytical way of dissecting long and wordy Japanese sentences into its components. The example sentences chosen as one progresses in the book, are, however, quite abstract. Beginners may, therefore find it daunting at that point. But overall an excellent book.
