This is a great book for the price. I'm not of the caliber player to benefit from the knowledge in the book yet. I hope to be one day and I'll have this book to help me.

Karl, the reviewer before me, found exactly the right words to praise this book. I am a profesional player and can only agree. The only difference: I give it 5 stars :-)

Though its` title says "improve", the book is in part meant for budding experts. Most of the book is geared towards intermediate level players. There is a wealth of information on the doubling cube in match play(very interesting). Money games are not forgotten and Mr. Lamford explains the use of modern computers for both gaming and match play. He also uses exercises to gauge your understanding. Even with parts aimed at experts, it will still teach what needs to be learned to go from mid level to an advanced one, both easily and naturally. The amount of knowledge in this "little" book is unexcelled and NEEDS to be in every players library. the value of this book cannot be understated and is worth far and away more than the few pennies the book costs. May you get the same pleasure I`ve received (or more). Karl Duzell (real name)
