The book is organized into five parts: Part 1: Curling Basics-A brief introduction to curling for people who are new to the sport, plus basic information you must know to understand the rest of the book Part 2: Strategy Basics-Fundamental concepts that underlie all curling strategy Part 3: Tactics in Depth-Opens and endings. Decide how you want an end to finish, then pick the right opening moves to get you there. Part 4: Strategy Scenarios-Navigating the nebulous middle of an end. This section uses interactive puzzles to show you how to stay focused and steer play towards the ending you want. Part 5: Putting It All Together and Playing in the Real World-Follow a real game, shot by shot, and see how skips make-and stick with-plans. This section also covers "real world" situations, like curling on arena ice, and playing with new curlers who are still learning to make basic shots. The book also makes a great textbook for curling classes! (Author's note: There are three versions of this book - color paperback, black and white paperback, and e-book - so everyone can have access to curling knowledge at an affordable price.)
