Read This Before Reading Robert's Rules (in full) November 13, 2008 Colin (Maryland, USA) This slim volume is a great alternative if you're just starting out in parliamentary procedure, without having to thumb through the whole of Robert's Rules. I found it useful and informative, and it gives you a great general idea of how exactly meetings and organizations should be run. Reading the whole of Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised would be a great undertaking and it's great that the same authors of that book wrote this condensed version, complete with in depth cross references to the actual text in case you need to dig a little deeper.

Robert's Rules Of Order Newly Revised In Brief (Roberts Rules of Order (in Brief)) This is an excellent brief version for holding a meeting.
Good, but there are better summary versions of Robert's Rules October 25, 2008 W. Mears (San Diego, CA USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book was good as a way to get started in becoming familiar with Robert's Rules. However, a better introductory guide is Robert's Rules in Plain English. If you are new to Robert's Rules, my suggestion is get the Plain English book and read it cover to cover. It's short and will tell you 95% of what you'll probably need to know. If you need any further details, then you should move on to the full version of Robert's Rules. In my opinion, this book (...In Brief) is a little more dry and with lower quality examples than "Plain English."
A little too basic... October 14, 2008 Eileen Denlinger (Pleasanton, CA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I found this book to be a little too basic...it's perfect for someone who knows nothing about Robert's Rules of Order...but if you have a little knowledge, then the book is simplistic.
Extremely helpful September 8, 2008 Laurel Holmstrom (Cotati, CA United States) An extremely helpful short book on the important concepts and specific details of Robert's Rules. Authoritative, yet easy to understand. Points you in the direction of the 600 plus full edition if you need more info. We've bought it for all our committee chairs.
