"The Bridge Technique Series is designed to take the reader through the most important aspects of card-play technique at bridge. Each book of the series focuses on a different topic, and wherever possible the tactics and strategy are considered from the point of view of both declarer and defenders. Bridge is a partnership game, and maintaining communications between the two hands is equally important for declarer and defenders. This book begins with basic management of entries within a single suit, and goes on to discuss issues and common stratagems that relate to creating entries, killing the opposition entries, and disrupting smooth communication for the opponents.
