Pretty Good
In general I think Danny Roth books are worthwhile reading.
One of teh nice things he does is give you the play of the first few tricks, then ask you a question, and then point out that the key decision point was actually a couple of tricks ago. In otehr words he doenst tip you off that something special is happening and now is the time to think.

This book has 2 sets of problems, declarer and defense. The declarer problems were ok, geared towards Beginner/Intermediates. The defense problems were good in general, although I came up with alternative and plausible layouts that required a different solution. (In other words my answer was "wrong", but the chosen layout did not have to be the one based on the bidding - I ws not convinced taht teh authors layout was the most reasonable).

Overall - its a good book for Beginner Intermediate players.
If you are Advanced its not worth the money. Plenty of other problem books to read, try Kelseys Test Your XXX

It is strange that all of Midwest Book Reviews at 5 Stars, does this seem a little strange. They never reviewed a bood they didn't think was 5 stars. Are they being paid by the publisher?
