Synopsis "The Language of Backgammon: A Player's Dictionary "

Once a favorite pastime of thrill-seeking gamblers, backgammon has evolved over the last half century into a true statistical science, its top players rigorously training with artificial-intelligence programs in their quest to master the game’s secrets.The vocabulary of backgammon has evolved as well. While much of it remains that of a craps player out of a Damon Runyon yarn, it now also teems with terms denoting mathematical parameters and techniques that would have left an old-school risk-taker utterly at sea.This dictionary, a companion to the author’s 2-volume set, The Backgammon Chronicles, captures the language in this transitional phase, preserving its colorful, traditional argot while clearly defining the concepts that enable the contemporary expert to analyze the game with unprecedented depth and accuracy. The author’s intent is that the book will provide the 99% of backgammon enthusiasts worldwide who play recreationally with a key to the modern game’s elite realm.
