Amazon.com description: Product Description: Con Fantasia: Reviewing and Expanding Functional Italian Skills, 3e, allows readers to use their prior knowledge of Italian as a basis for expansion and practice of more complex linguistic and cultural topics. Each chapter is built around a thematic focus, and the book's activities are related to these themes. In this revised edition, each chapter now features four main parts, each consisting of the same elements, sections, and overall flow--a unique organization of the lexical, grammatical, communicative, and cultural material that distinguishes CON FANTASIA from other intermediate Italian textbooks. The Third Edition presents readers with numerous opportunities to express themselves--an approach designed to encourage confidence from the very start.
