difficult to use...
By LARRY
As an ASL instructor, I found myself not really liking this ASL book. I'm constantly comparing it to Vista/Signing Naturally, not that it's a perfect book either.
First of all, it is difficult to learn 3-D signs from a book. However, you can get an accompanying DVD/VHS. However, it is not much help. The signs/models in the video are too fast for beginners to learn and pick up. This is the biggest complaint from my students.
Another thing, there isn't much cultural tidbits for beginning students. There are more grammar tidbits. Therefore, you'll get the feeling that the linguistic aspect of this book is more important than anything else. Sure, we all want you to sign correctly. However, I want my students to have equal knowledge of the Deaf culture/community.
There are about 3 exercises in each unit. There's barely any activities included to make learning fun. This book focuses on rote learning rather than meaningful learning. For me, rote learning isn't quite effective for students to learn signs.
If your teacher/class require this book, I suggest you bombard your teacher with questions about signs, grammar and culture.

Good sign language starter
By Annette Cole
This is a very good book for learning sign language with the help of an experienced signer (or class) or with the help of the videos. The actual language of ASL is taught, not just english words. Some of the pictures are hard to figure out without the help of the video or an instructor so it would not be the best choice for self learning ASL.

I am 67 years old) and the book was recommended but not required
By Leonard Griffin
Most of the signs are clear but the others are vague. You definitely need an instructor. I am taking an ASL class (for my bucket list, I am 67 years old) and the book was recommended but not required.The $80.00+ price is a bit steep. Wish there was an index in the rear of all the signs
