"Many players go through life thinking that squeeze play is complex, esoteric, and certainly beyond their capabilities. This book demonstrates that basic squeeze play is within anyone's grasp, and that even double squeezes are not unthinkable. Finally, the authors discuss how a defender can avoid being squeezed--a topic that has rarely received much ink."--Back cover
