I agree with the above post that it starts out really slowly (slow = 1-4 sentences per lesson) in order to introduce the letters. I think it's a big waste of pages and lessons. I never thought Assimil should be used by raw beginners anyway (just my opinion), especially for more challenging languages like Hebrew, so they should already know the alphabet at the very least.
The audio is really slow throughout almost the entire book. Too slow. I guess it's possible to speed it up if you import it to another program such as Audacity.
Overall, the product is pretty typical Assimil, though maybe slightly below average for them. That said, "average - below average" Assimil is still usually better than most other products out there.
