In a program about comprehensive fretboard proficiency, you likely (and rightfully!) expect to learn
This book and the accompanying 111 videos deliver on this in a well-thought-out system that covers the entire fretboard with great fingering.
However, it goes beyond that in unique and compelling ways.
You will:
Anyone can do this — I have taught this system to casual players and highly experienced bassists alike — to rave reviews.
If you are a student or an educator this program will help you shine in any musical style.
If you are ready to turn dreams of fluent proficiency and authentic expression into reality, read this book.
Recommended prerequisite: Music Theory for the Bass Player by Ariane Cap or general music theory knowledge, and basic playing technique
The “Pattern System” will open doors you never knew existed.
Ariane’s The Pattern System for the Bass Player is a landmark book! It presents a wealth of musical information with a thoughtful, systematic approach, designed to guide any student through the process of learning to create music with the bass. It is comprehensive and well organized, using a holistic learning paradigm aimed at developing the full constellation of skills involved in music making. I not only very highly recommend it, I’ll be using it myself!

Note: to avoid the higher price tag of spiral bound books or if you already bought the perfect bound version: I recommend you go to a print shop (FEDEX, Office Max, UPS) and ask for the spine to be cut off and coil binding put in. They often do this while you wait.
