What it actually is
If you take a German course in Germany there's a good chance it uses Menschen or its Hueber sibling Schritte — communicative, image-heavy, with a Kursbuch/Arbeitsbuch split, audio and video. Buying the pair lets a self-learner follow the same syllabus a real class would. It genuinely assumes a teacher and classmates for the speaking activities, so half the book underdelivers if you're alone.
