Bridge at the Top by Samantha Punch
In the course of researching the sociology of bridge, sociologist Dr. Sam Punch has been able to interview many of the world's top bridge personalities. The topics of these conversations were wide-ranging, and included the dynamics at the table, challenges, motivations, emotions, partnerships, teammates, skill development and gender issues. Top players, coaches and even sponsors talk frankly about what life in the top echelons of bridge is all about - and give the reader a revealing glimpse of what it is really like 'behind the screens'. The best interviews are collected in this book and they offer fascinating insights into what it takes to be a top player or coach. As a bonus, each subject offers his or her favourite bridge tip.Ian McIntosh is Lecturer in Sociology in the Department of Applied Social Science at the University of Stirling. He is an experienced teacher of Sociology and has published extensively in academic journals and textbooks.
