Paul Thurston�s 25 Steps to Learning 2/1 was an instant bestseller, winning the 2003 American Bridge Teachers� Association Book of the Year award. In a tantalizing postscript to that book, he promised a sequel, one that would cover �the rest of the story� for those who wanted to add modern sophistication to their 2/1 bidding. Here at last he delivers, and the long wait has been worth it. The book describes an understandable and playable version of today�s most popular system, something that has been missing from the literature until now.
