Robert's Bidding Basics

Robert's Bidding Basics book is an introduction to bridge bidding for players that have been exposed to the game but have not played much bridge or have not played it in a long time.  We do not cover the basics of trick taking, scoring, or other mechanics of the game here.  That information can be found in many other publications.  
This book is sometimes referred to as This Week in Bridge (TWiB) 0 as part of the AiB Educational Curriculum. 

This is a great place to start learning the game.  Get a copy for yourself and give one to a friend and get to playing bridge!
