The 1990, ninth edition, of Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised is the only currently authoritative volume to contain the complete Robert's Rules of Order subject matter. It has been totally reset and redesigned for easier use. This ninth edition supersedes all previous editions and automatically becomes the parliamentary authority in organizations whose bylaws prescribe Robert's Rules of Order. This edition has been updated to address common inquiries, and it incorporates new rules, interpretations, and procedures made necessary by the evolution of parliamentary procedure. Among the more important areas of revision are: more modern and appropriate usage is given for the chair's invitation to members to speak in debate or offer secondary motions after stating the question on a motion the rule relating to the power of replacement of members on committees by the appointing authority is clarified formal recognition is given to the practice of sending a suggested agenda to members in advance of a meeting a subsection of hints to inexperienced presiding officers had been improved greater prominence is given to rules relating to the growing practice of nominating for office by petition specifications are provided for methods of expediting roll-call voting in very large conventions and calling a roll by delegation rather than by individuals In addition, the ninth edition of Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised includes a special section, printed on tinted paper, which summarizes rules related to motions for quick and easy access.

Buy This! It's Very Helpful!

Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2017

Verified Purchase

After attending meetings the past 30 years through the schools and church that are supposed to follow Roberts Rules, I finally decided to purchase THE OFFICIAL up to date Roberts Rules complete edition.

Do not buy books that are a commentary, summary, "cliff notes," or "dummy" versions of Roberts Rules. Go to the source and this is it!

Get out a pen or highlighter as you read noteworthy sections for your meetings.

This is not boring and you can skim the less important sections relevant to your meetings.

My take away for Roberts Rules is not to know them to be the expert at meetings on parliamentary procedure or to know rules for the sake or rules, but on how to keep meetings moving and treat all participants with respect. Not a bad lesson for all of us!

Finally purchase the hardcover edition so you can pass this on to the presidents of your organizations.

Small but easy on the eyes

Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2018

This book is perfect for a small paperback. Typeface is easy to read (I wear 2.0 reading glasses). I bought this book to update the old hard cover that was passed to me from my grandfather which is smaller and about 1/4 the thickness. The print date is from almost 100 years ago! Paperbacks are not much of an heirloom to pass down, but this is perfect for the state board exam for which I am studying. It is a welcome addition to my library. See pics with measurements.
Note - Shipping was fast with Prime and was delivered on a Sunday afternoon.

If you loves rules' details...this is it

Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2018

Verified Purchase

For the rest of us, it's a little tedious. Too much detail, stick with the "Dummies" version and you will get all you need, because let's face it, except for those totally nerdy folks no one really needs this much detail....damn, it's 716 pages long...do you really need that much information to just withdraw a motion or table a discussion...Not really. I'd recommend you stick with the Dummies version....and who really FOLLOWS Robert's Rules??? Not too many folks as you will see if you buy this tome.

The real Robert's: The authority on parliamentary procedure

Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2011

Verified Purchase

As a lawyer and parliamentarian, when I am asked about proper procedure at a meeting, my first question is: What rules do you use? Is there an applicable statute, or bylaws or rules that the organization has adopted? Nine times out of ten, the answer is: "Robert's Rules of Order." Robert's is the most widely used parliamentary manual in the United States.

General Henry M. Robert published the original "Robert's Rules" in 1875 and 1876 and, since the copyright on that edition (and the next few editions) has long since expired, there are numerous unofficial editions on the market. The third edition, published in 1893, is still marketed in paperback by more than one publisher as the "original" Robert's Rules. With the copyright expired, even the name "Robert's" has passed into the public domain, and many imitators have slapped the name "Robert's" on books of parliamentary procedure that bear minimal relation to General Robert's work (much as many dictionaries claim the name "Webster's" without any connection to Noah Webster or the Merriam-Webster brand that carries on his work). This book is the real Robert's, composed by an editorial board appointed by General Robert's heirs (including his descendant Henry III, an eminent parliamentarian in his own right). Now in its 11th edition, published in September 2011, this book "supersedes all previous editions and is intended automatically become the parliamentary authority in organizations whose bylaws prescribe 'Robert's Rules of Order' ... or the like, without specifying a particular edition."

The 11th edition, the first new edition in 11 years, incorporates various issues that the authors have addressed informally since the 10th edition was published in 2000. For example, the chapter on disciplinary procedures has been fleshed out so that it has become a practical rather than a theoretical guide, and new provisions have been added about electronic notice and about participation in meetings by phone or by internet connection. (There are still quite a few archaisms, though: the presiding officer is still referred to as "he," while the secretary is "he or she." And the arcane and archaic motion to "reconsider and enter on the minutes" is still around.) This edition is being released in conjunction with the new (2d) edition of the shorter and more user-friendly "Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised in Brief," an authoritative abridgment that will serve as an adequate alternative for users who don't need the full 669-page version.

Robert's is not necessarily the best parliamentary manual on the market: "Modern Parliamentary Procedure" by Ray Keesey is far more logical and user-friendly, and "The Standard Code of Parliamentary Procedure" by Alice Sturgis (commissioned by the American Institute of Parliamentarians as a contemporary alternative to Robert's) is more readable and more rooted in modern practice. But no other book has gained as much as a toehold in Robert's dominance in the market. If you are interested in parliamentary procedure, or figuring out how most organizations work in the 21st-century United States, this Robert's is indispensable.
