A Unique Way to Study Defense

In their previous book together, On the Other Hand, David Bird and

Larry Cohen presented cardplay instruction in a novel way. 100 pairs of

deals were shown -- one described by David and the other by Larry. The

deals looked similar (in some cases very similar) but an entirely different

line of play was necessary to make each of the contracts. The book was

well received and won the American Bridge Teachers' Association 'Book

of the Year' award.

This follow-up volume uses exactly the same approach, but addresses

defense rather than declarer play. Only by clearly understanding the

defensive techniques involved will you be able to defeat such contracts

when you encounter them at the table.
