I just got back from Las Vegas where I attended a seminar with Larry Cohen and Marty Bergen. Bergen for the Defense improved my game faster than any other book that I've read on the subject (my partner owes a great debt to him). What are your favorite Bergen or Cohen books?

I do not have that many books of any of them, but I would probably put "Better bidding with Bergen" as my favorite of Marty Bergen, while I probably choose "Bridge Below the Belt" as my favorite by Larry Cohen.

"My favorite 52" By Larry Cohen is a must. Even Rodwell recommends it.
The first "Better bidding with Bergen" vols I and II books by Marty were outstanding.
Best book to improve defense (also card play) in a fast way is Jim Priebe's Thinking on defense

Best book to improve fast on declarer play is
"How to read your opponents cards" by Mike Lawrence
