Where it came from
Published in 2006 by McGraw-Hill as part of the long-standing Teach Yourself series, this guide was authored by David Parlett, a renowned expert and game designer in the world of card games. The series was designed to provide accessible, foundational knowledge on specialized subjects for the general reader, and Parlett utilized his deep academic and practical understanding of card game mechanics to structure the book for both novices and intermediate players.
The design of the book focuses on clear pedagogy, prioritizing the logic behind games rather than just listing rules. Parlett, who is well-regarded for his original game inventions and his contributions to the study of games, aimed to distill centuries of tradition into an approachable format. The work was received as a reliable reference, noted for its breadth and the author's ability to categorize complex, traditional card games into coherent, learnable chapters.
