Critic's Viewpoint

"It's refreshing to find a bridge book, which is different - this one is, mostly in a positive way. Recommended."
- Anders Wirgren, Sweden

"Treasure troves of hands and information for teachers and advancing students. The hands are exceptional, and the analyses clear and concise"
- American Bridge Teachers Association

"How can we resist the price? Problem collections are always popular and Tim Bourke is top of the line at problem construction. An A-."
- Ron Garber

"The format of this series is most appealling. Each volume contains 36 problems, the reader being presented four problems at a time. Solutions are set out after each set of four, each colution being complete on one or two pages. Beacuse of this format, the reader is able to focus on eac problem separately without worrying about being able to see the "answer" in advance."
- Belleville Intelligencer

"The authors have done their jobs very well, as the hands are well constructed and the commentaries are a real pleasure to read."
- BRIDGE Magazine

"A great  supplement to the many excellent books in the Bridge Technique series ..."
- Jon Sveindal, Norway
