HashiriKata Posted February 26, 2008 at 07:43 AM Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 at 07:43 AM This seems to be the same series published earlier by The Commercial Press, split into 4 volumes instead of the original 2. It's reasonably good and out of familiarity with it, I often recommend it to new learners. I looked at the BLCUP website but couldn't find any details on how to buy, apart from the fact that you'll have to first register. Do they ship overseas? What kind of payment (credit card, Paypal, etc.) does the site accept? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
