Mah Jong for Beginners

Summary: A confusing book on Mah Jong
Review: I wanted a good book on how to learn and play Mah Jong. With this book, I felt I was getting a book that was poorly translated from Chinese to English. It was hard to follow and explained a version of Mah Jong I was not familiar with. Maybe a person who is more familiar with the game play would have a better time with this book. For beginners, it is very confusing. It does have some good sections on play and strategy. Granted, it does beat the instructions you get with most Mah Jong sets, but there are better books out there.(see Mah Jong Illustrated)

Review: Maybe here in Oz we're used to things being translated from Asian languages into English... I had no trouble with the book, which is by a Japanes co author and illustrates the Japanee rules. I have bought copies as gifts for those learning.
