While firmly rooted in mathematics, this is a book that aims to be accessible to any bridge player. It develops ideas about probability and information theory and applies them to bridge. Concepts such as vacant spaces, restricted choice and how splits in one suit affect the probabilities in other suits, are discussed in depth.
About the Author: Robert F. MacKinnon lives in Victoria, Canada. His bridge writings include a blog on mathematical issues in bridge, various magazine articles, and two books of bridge fiction, including the remarkable Samurai Bridge.
