"Breakthrough German 2" is part of the "Breakthrough" languages series. It is a revised, almost entirely rewritten, edition of "Breakthrough Further German" and now follows on from the "New Breakthrough German" course. New illustrations, many in colour, complement the user-friendly page layout and almost all of the studio recordings are new. A cassette (0-333-71916-6) and book/cassette pack (0-333-71915-8) are also available with location recordings that teach the new language as it is spoken in Germany. The course concentrates primarily on conversational and reading skills. "Breakthrough" is for self-study, and those in adult education, further education and higher education (non-specialist).
