    About this ebook

    Mandarin Chinese has less complicated grammar than French, German, or English. Basic sentence structure in Chinese is subject - verb - object, just like English. Word order is very important in Chinese, since verbs aren't conjugated, and nouns aren't declined. In English, verbs take different forms, such as see/saw/seen, in Chinese only one word, kan is used. In English one has to learn when to use cat (singular) or cats (plural), in Chinese there is only one word, mao. The word order in the sentence indicates what is going on. Understanding Mandarin grammar is key to understanding Chinese.

      This is a very nice, concise summary of the skeletal system, its' purposes, and the related medical disorders. The guide has very nice illustrations of some of the major bones of the body. However, I do wish they had a clearer, better illustration of the overall skeleton similar to the quality of the other illustrations. Those are just too blurry and indistinct. Overall, a very nice intro to the skeletal system for beginners.
