This is a decent book for learning Chinese Hanzi, which uses mental mnemonics and an order that's optimal for actually making them stick. The only issue I have is that the book only features Simplified characters (which I believe the author has addressed in the newest revision), so you'll be missing out on a lot of opportunities to compare Traditional characters to the Simplified ones. Some other decent books with a very similar approach at CPL (all published by Tuttle) are: - Chinese Characters Made Easy (ISBN:9780804843850) - Learning Chinese characters (ISBN:9780804838160)
