Demystifying Defense by Patrick O'connor

O'Connor established himself as a leading author for beginning players with his first book, A First Book of Bridge Problems, which won the American Bridge Teachers' Association Book of the Year award in 2012. Now he addresses the hardest aspect of card play: defense. After carefully explaining the basic concepts, he takes the reader through forty problems, using an 'over the shoulder' style, and explaining every play as it is made. Beginners typically have more trouble with defense than any other part of the game, and this book will go a long way towards removing their unease.
Patrick O’Connor, who is based in Australia, is the author of two previous books: A First Book of Bridge Problems (December 2011; ISBN 978-1897106-83-9) and A Second Book of Bridge Problems (January 2014; ISBN 978-177140-011-4). Both books were ABTA award winners.
