In our exciting new text, Vis-a-vis offers instructors a
communicative book that is made more personal by its cast of
likable characters and that is enriched by a wealth of
innovative features, including video and CD-ROM options. In Vis-
a-vis: Beginning French, students learn about French language
and culture at the same time they get to know -- through video
and written correspondence -- eight people who live in various
parts of France and the francophone world. Creative cultural
components woven throughout the text present images and news of
the French-speaking world with special emphasis on four areas of
"la francophonie": Quebec province, North and West Africa, the
French Antilles, and French-speaking Europe. Vis-a-vis is part
of a complete program that includes a text-specific video and
incorporates video-based activities into every chapter of the
text. Vis-a-vis is a comprehensive 16 chapter text with a clear,
easy-to-manage modular chapter structure. If You Enjoy "Vis-a-
