Summary:

"In their previous book together, On the Other Hand, David Bird and Larry Cohen presented cardplay instructions 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." --from back cover
