Player's Handbook Monte Cook, Jonathan Tweet, Skip Williams Player's handbook for Dungeons and Dragons 3rd Edition.

Dungeons and Dragons has been the premiere fantasy role-playing game system for the past 20+ years. There are no playing pieces and no dice--just the rulebooks, pencil & paper, and the players' imagination. One person takes on the role of dungeon master, creating a fantasy world populated with dwarves, elves and goblins, and describing that world to the players, as they explore it by telling the dungeon master what they want to do next.

The 3rd Edition Player's Handbook is one book out of the three (along with the Dungeon Master's Guide and Monster Manual) that comprise the newly re-worked 3rd Edition Dungeons and Dragons rules. Though still voluminous, the rules have been greatly re-worked for simplicity and to improve playability. The book also has fabulous artwork--a great improvement over previous editions.
