Customer Reviews:
Parly Pro Which Everyone Should Know, 2008-09-01 As a source, Robert's Rules is the definitive answer to all things parliamentary procedure. I have used this guide in all the work that I have done in the competitive realm of congressional debate. With a competitive use of these rules for academic purposes, changes have to be made to allow for a fuller use for debating teams and individuals. But when any question arises over what certain steps should be taken, no matter how unusual the circumstance, Robert's Rules has the correct and most widely accepted answers for all the parli pro that is needed.
This edition, unlike so many other books which claim to answer procedure, has all the answers in a very extensive format. This work also includes helpful tables and example forms at the end of the book for easy reference, as well as a great index covering the entirety of the book if you must find a procedure which you cannot identify from the table to contents.
This is a must for anyone who wants to know what to do in any environment which needs to adhere to specific parli pro!
