A common problem facing visitors to China is "instant illiteracy". In China, familiar signs in English are rare. Even the independent spirit soon learns that without language skills, one requires help to engage in the most basic activities. The design of this book is to offer basic sentences upon which other sentences can be patterned, rather than attempt to provide specific phrases for every situation the China traveler could possibly encounter. A dictionary and easy to find glossary for everyday situations like going to the post office, talking about the weather, ordering in a restaurant, etc makes this pocket-sized book a must-have. An audio CD is included Also get matching Beijing Streetwise Guide.
