I bought this for an intro class for ASL and it is very helpful and practical. It gives an overall view of the deaf community and their culture. I am 1 month into reading this book and already know so much. I definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to learn ASL.

Required for an ASL class we took. Many signs are outdated, and sometimes the signs are very hard to understand from the drawings. Other books that use photos instead of drawings and describe the signs based on handshape and movement are more useful.

I took one year of ASL (all that our local community college offers), and wanted to continue my studies. I finally found a great book with up-to-date ASL signs that includes sentences in ASL grammar. There are 1,300 signs covered over 44 lessons that include: 1) vocabulary, 2) clear sign illustrations, 3) Deaf facts, 4) grammar notes, 5) ???Mind Ticklers??? to help you remember the sign, 6) practice sentences in ASL grammar, 7) class activities, and 8) student activities (homework).

Great book. Lots of vocabulary and images showing how to do the signs. Easy to set up into weekly lessons. Individual practice as well as class ideas. Lots of suggestions to create own sentences to practice.
