Remembering the Kanji, Vol 3: Writing and Reading Japanese Characters for Upper-Level Proficiency is the 3rd volume in James Heisig's popular and controversial series. Co-written with Tanya Sienko, Volume 3 covers an additional 1000 advanced level kanji, bringing the total kanji covered by the series to 3000. This ebook version is good value - I found it on the White Rabbit Press website for $US12.98 (delivered on CD) and considering the paperback is presently unavailable on Amazon it may be your only chance to get your hands on Vol 3 if you don't live near a major bookstore. The blurb on White Rabbit Press says:
This 491 page ebook covers just over 3,000 advance level kanji. Also included are the indexes of both Remembering the Kanji, Volumes 1 and 2 for a total of 639 pages.
but Volume 3 only covers the additional kanji from 2000~3000, NOT the whole 3000. Even so, good stuff.
Hey, I was wondering what people thought of Remembering the kanji vol. 2. Do people find it a useful follow on? Or - having remembered the meanings and writings of the 1st 2000 kanji - do people simply learn the vocabulary associated with them (and their combinations) and in that way learn all the pronunciations they need?

doesn't the CD also include eBook versions of his first two books?
