Bridge does not claim to present any new theories or rules. It is an attempt to present the subject in the simplest manner and yet in a systematic and natural order, and in such a way as to interest and instruct the reader in the principles and to familiarize him with the best practice of the game, without burdening his memory with too many rules.
