Look, it's not like I read Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised In Brief because I thought it was going to be scintillating prose, so we'll dispense with any commentary about whether it was enjoyable to read. It wasn't. But if you agree to chair a debate two days in advance, reading this little book certainly beats the hell out of trying to read all of the full-length version. This little volume is more comprehensive than a cheat sheet, contains some useful instructions for officers as well as participants, and is a quick, easy, accessible overview of the basics of debating and voting on stuff via parliamentary procedure. Also, despite not being Robert's Rules itself, it still has the cute little J.R.R. Tolkien-looking logo on it, which I am far too amused by.
