Let's face it: the language market is changing. English has been the lingua franca for a while now, but it's not going to always be that way. It's projected that Chinese or Spanish might take over the English language as the lingua franca in the next century. So it makes sense that you're searching this book: Spanish is an in-demand language to know. By knowing Spanish, you're opening the door to communication with hundreds of millions more people than you could speak with before.

Jessica really wanted to learn Spanish but thought she just couldn’t find the time to do so. She tried everything from one on one lessons before work to attending local Mexican parties in hopes of finding Spanish-speaking friends. Nothing seemed like it was going to work and if it did, it was going to take too much time. With no positive results coming from any of these attempts, Jessica began to believe that learning a new language was going to be an impossible task.

Historia
With dazzling wit and astonishing insight, Bill Bryson - the acclaimed author of The Lost Continent - brilliantly explores the remarkable history, eccentricities, resilience, and sheer fun of the English language. From the first descent of the larynx into the throat (why you can talk but your dog can't) to the fine lost art of swearing, Bryson tells the fascinating, often uproarious story of an inadequate, second-rate tongue of peasants that developed into one of the world's largest growth industries.

Historia
In this unique new history of the world's most ubiquitous language, linguistics expert David Crystal draws on words that best illustrate the huge variety of sources, influences, and events that have helped to shape our vernacular since the first definitively English word was written down in the fifth century ("roe", in case you are wondering). Featuring Latinate and Celtic words, weasel words and nonce-words, ancient words ("loaf") to cutting edge ("twittersphere") and spanning the indispensable words that shape our tongue ("and", "what") to the more fanciful ("fopdoodle"), Crystal takes us along the winding byways of language.

Historia
Early in the history of English, glamour and grammar were the same word, linked to enchantment and magical spells. Now grammar brings to mind language bullies and bored-out-of-their-skulls students. Roy Peter Clark, one of America’s most influential writing teachers, wants to change that by putting the glamour back into grammar.

Historia
This book has no pretension about it whatever -- it is neither a Manual of Rhetoric, expatiating on the dogmas of style, nor a Grammar full of arbitrary rules and exceptions. It is merely an effort to help ordinary, everyday people to express themselves in ordinary, everyday language, in a proper manner.

Ideal to learn while driving!!
Very good DVD set, and supporting materials too. Ideal to learn while driving. BUT you have to know many basic words before you start, and you will greatly benefit from this course. Take "Spanish for dummies" first, and learn all words from there.

I love this book series!
I use this book in conjunction with Duolingo and I feel like I have a better grasp on a plethora of concepts that I couldn’t comprehend before. The explanations are all clear and I love the reviews after each section.

Easily improve your grammar and vocabulary
This is a great way to learn French. It is challenging and if you are serious about learning French you are going to have to put in the study time and not just drive around listening.

As a beginner, I search for this audible accommodating and well-spoken. As a beginner, I feel like this is a great place to begin. Describes the use of parts of speech very well and a great listen.
