Countdown to Winning Bridge

"If you have been playing bridge without counting the hand, perhaps for years, you are about to enter a new world." Thus David Bird, in the foreword to the original edition of this book. Thousands of readers learned to improve their play from the book version, and now it is available in an interactive CDROM, using Fred Gitelman's state-of-the-art Bridge Base engine. The reader can play through every example himself, as many times as he wants, bringing an "at-the-table" feel to the learning process.
