The textbook is great mainly because it has a transcript of the acted scenes. The workbook
is useless without the audio exercise files. I don't remember what's been updated in the new edition of the textbook, but the main content won't change much since the video hasn't changed. I do think there are a few new audio exercises per lesson, which the publishers allow you to download for free (but I can't remember the source, sorry). 1 person has voted this message useful | |

The new textbook includes Marie Laure's diary and some more modern shots from the video (better angles).
There is some new vocabulary so the student can refer to a portable, etc. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

Yes, if I remember rightly there's been changes to the reading documents to modernize
them and refer to newer technology and modes of communication etc 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Thank you for your answers..
I think I'll just watch the video then. I got the transcript and if I like the program and want to get to know what's in the book/workbook I think about whether buying it makes sense :) 1 person has voted this message useful | |

If you can get the audio files (and they seem to be floating around the internet, which
is annoying as I bought them on ebay) you can do most of the exercises without the workbooks. But be warned, FIA takes a long time to do, it is realistically a 1-2 year course. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Elexi, you should be proud of yourself that you obtained them legally. I've seen it on eBay, but the audio was on a memory stick, so clearly not the "legitimate" version of the audio.
