Dari-English/English-Dari Practical Dictionary
reviewed in the Foreign Service Journal in November 2010:"With President Obama's committment to redouble efforts in Afghanistan, language skills and expertise are in high demand. Dari, a relative of Persian and the main spoken language in Afghanistan, is especially important. This two-way Dari-English dictionary is one of the few up-to-date works of its type available. While the dictionary is quite detailed and covers a lot of vocabulary, it remains portable and easy to read. The author also includes a guide to pronunciation, information about Afghanistan and even some Dari proverbs. At a time when the U.S. is trying to communicate with Afghans and win their hearts and minds, a practical resource such as this is a necessity."
