This book helped me attain a great score in my competitive exams. I cannot thank Norman Lewis enough!

[Jithin S · Rating 4 out of 5]

It is not as good as Word Power Made Easy by the same author, but can recommend to someone who really wants to improve his/her vocabulary in a short period of time.

[Yogesh Aggarwal · Rating 3 out of 5]

Good to understand and develop a skill which will give you a balanced English.

[Nitish Parkar · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a good book for understanding a few common grammatical mistakes and a quick assessment of your English. There are parts of it, such as section on spellings, which is irrelevant to most people in the modern world(because of prevalence of spell checkers and auto correct). I didn't find the pronounciation part accurate when compared to online dictionaries. And for improving vocabulary, you are better off with word power made easy.

As an English as third language speaker, this book was helpful because it taught me the concept of relevancy.

The book is about simple, accurate, conversational English and how we should focus on that.

If English is not your primary language and you expect this book to help you speak conversational English, my suggestion is to start from the basics, how to construct simple sentences and compound sentences, because this book doesn't teach that. This book is great for improving your grammar, pronunciation, and spelling, preparing you to speak confidently in public.
