I love LibreVox. It is a great resource of audio books that are free.

Thanks for posting.

I always gave this book the credit for why U of Chicago didn’t go up in flames in the 60’s. Our students were too busy running their meetings by Robert’s Rules of Order to actually do much anti-war activity.

Ugh! I don’t think Major Robert of the USArmy Corps of Engineers would sound anything like the thickly-accented UK reader of his text.

Is that Cockney?

For an American English speaker/listener, the complexity of the text and thoughts already demand close attention, but with such an accent, I suspect most listeners like myself will have to work even ‘aarder to catch all that is said. That makes understanding come only at a tiring price.

Too bad the playback doesn’t seem to allow speed-up and slow-down.

I wonder if there has ever been a computer program to aid with parliamentary procedure?

You’ve got your main motion, then subsidiary motions, points of order, etc.

The program would say which procedures are valid.
