Spanish Business Situations: A Spoken Language Guide

I know how reviews found here can put you off buying what on closer inspection turns out to be a real gem. (and vice versa). This book's simple cut-to-the-chase bilingual approach is too rare in english/american language teaching handbooks these days. The book is chock-full of immediately applicable content, which is also very refreshing compared to what in 90% of cases on the market seems like spoon-feeding of knowledge. For those who work in an office with 'hispanoablantes' or must deal with them on the phone or in person in business environment, this book is priceless. The price is steep (is that without the audio?) but try to leaf through it in a bookstore and you'll see I'm right. As to beginners still in need of remedial grammar classes - just stay away from it, but not too long as undoubtedly it may speed up you business spanish skills in record time.
