Pool and Billiards For Dummies

Very useful book, covers all the basics, plus how side and screw affect the line of any and all shots. Would highly recommend for a beginner and those who want to improve their match play.

a hands on guide that covers everything you need to know. from the basics-stance,stroke. to controlling the cue-ball-making shots. different games you can play, practice techniques, trick shots even setting up your own poolroom. Nicholas Leider has put it altogether-a terrific book. All fans of pool-a must buy,

After reading the book and trying out the steps my pool game has improved. Don't expect overnight to turn into a master it takes time and effort with a lot of practise.

Brilliant book for beginners, helps you out from basics to advanced, there's something for everyone brilliantly written very informative

Excellent product, good price, prompt delivery. Thanks

Pretty good

does not fully explain the rules of pool a bit dissapointed

Bought as part of a birthday present for my nephew. Arrived promptly and well packaged. Nephew seemed pleased with it.

Very nice book, good content and illustrations. I t would be great a version in spanish. Good for beginners and intermediate.

everything was shipped on time and the book was exactly what I was looking for. It helps understand the game

Ainda não li...So vi superficialmente!!!

A bunch of people at my workplace play pool every Friday night, and I decided I wanted to get in on the fun. I hadn't played pool since I was a kid visiting my grandparents, and they had a pool table in the basement. So my "technique" was really rough and my knowledge was limited. This book certainly helped me out a bit and it stops me from looking totally clueless at pool night. I think even a seasoned pool player could learn at least one or two things from this. I love the For Dummies books because you can just skim through or skip sections and read exactly what you want to know. They're definitely reader friendly because of this.

I had hoped for a fuller explanation of the rules of snooker, in simple terms, as part of the book. The treatment is quite brief and limited. Otherwise an initial perusal makes me think it will be helpful in playing the various games of snooker, pool and billiards. Time will tell.
