Mike Lawrence talks through 65 hands from a defensive point of view.

Other authors have also done a similar thing (e.g. Terence Reese) but somehow Mike's are more insightful and explain better how an ordinary bridge player should defend a hand

Mike Lawrence's books are great. Useful, practical ideas, clearly explained. What could be better than that?
This is the second time I've read this one, and probably not the last.

A solid entry into his series. Another book of scattered ideas and topics rather than a specific set of bidding theme-and-variations.
