Motions, rules, and procedures-all the problems of running a
successful meeting smoothly and fairly-are covered in this special
edition of a famous manual of parliamentary procedure. A clear
presentation of the complex Procedure of Motions, clarifications of
many technical points, explanatory charts and diagrams have been
added to the original 1893 Robert's Rules of Orders to make it
especially valuable to clubs, churches, and organizations, of every
type and size. For this long-needed task, Rachel Vixman draws on
half a century's experience in directing national organizations and
teaching parliamentary law. Now President of the New York
Metropolitan Chapter, American Institute of Parliamentarians, and
Parliamentarian of the New York City Federation of Women's Clubs,
she has taught and spoken all over the United States and Canada,
and has presided as parliamentarian at many national and state
conventions.
