What is Western Civilization? According to Professor Noble, it is "much more than human and political geography," encompassing myriad forms of political and institutional structures - from monarchies to participatory republics - and its own traditions of political discourse. It involves choices about who gets to participate in any given society and the ways in which societies have resolved the tension between individual self-interest and the common good.

Did you know that about 122 million people in Japan, and another 8 million worldwide speak Japanese? For Americans, it's perceived as a difficult language to learn, but in fact, it's quite regular. Once you get the basics down, you'll be surprised how quickly you're able to begin speaking it. And even knowing a little bit of the language will make travel to Japan far easier, and much more fun.

I wouldn't rely exclusively on audio to learn a language, but Pimsleur has been very useful. I use this with other texts, and the results are pretty good.

Pimsleur is awesome!
It's great that the words are broken down into syllables and each lesson builds very nicely onto the last. I certainly feel so much more comfortable speaking Japanese now! Nihongo ga wakarimasuka?
