the key elements of bidding, declarer play and defence, amusing hands and
bridge stories, written for the social bridge player, but with much for more
experienced players too. Brush up your knowledge on the key areas of your game, so
that, wherever you play - kitchen, local group or club - you will be more
likely to succeed. Eschewing most conventions, everyday bidding problems are
solved logically and clearly, declarer play techniques, from the ubiquitous 3NT
to tricky little part-scores, are broken down into the crucial areas for
consideration, and defensive decisions are made easier by knowing exactly the
target for which you are striving. For forty years, Paul Mendelson has lectured live and online
and, along with his easy-to-follow guidance, The Joy of Bridge shares a
selection of his infamously entertaining stories and hands. Paul's aim is
always to encourage bridge players, at any level, to stop trying to remember
what to do, but simply to think instead so that solutions to problems become
readily apparent and play becomes easier.
