Its author, Paul Magriel, is perhaps the game's best player (his international rivals have nicknamed him 'The Computer' acknowledging him to be a premier theoretician). He has ingeniously broken down every aspect of backgammon to its component parts, explaining the game here with a unique, easy to understand, step-by-step, building-block approach. Magriel writes in concise non-technical language that is enhanced by 600 clear and precise diagrams, a glossary and tables. (Because gambling has become an integral part of backgammon for many players, the betting odds inherent in the game are also carefully spelled out). For any player who means to take the game seriously and wants to play well, this book is an indispensable guide and essential reference tool. BACKGAMMON carefully explains the game's basic concepts, ideas, and strategic principles. They have never before been organized or categorized so lucidly.". First Printing of the First Edition.
