The "over-my-shoulder" genre in bridge literature became prominent in the writing of Terence Reese — he was unsurpassed at it — and continued in the work of writers such as Mike Lawrence, Larry Cohen and myself. The reader gets access into the mind of an expert player and follows his thought processes. The reader is exposed to techniques — such as counting and drawing inferences — that are supposedly reserved for experts. In this book you sit beside me for 90 deals and can compare your decisions with mine. Most of the deals present problems on a level I would call "intermediate." You won’t agree with all my actions; bridge involves personal style and judgment. My at-the-table analysis may not even be error-free; that’s part of the game also. Still, I hope you will find it interesting and instructive to listen in on my thoughts.
