About the book
This book and others in the series, such as English 2600, are exceptional learning tools that are too often overlooked by both educators specifically and the general population at large. A student can use this book to improve her/his mastery of English just by following the program. She or he can possibly gain more if a teacher is involved to offer coaching/mentoring but such a requirement it is not necessary. I have given copies of E3200 to foreign students eager to improve their mastery and the results have always been encouraging. The book may be over four decades old but its value is every bit as high as it was when first release. Joseph Malgeri
