Duplicate Flipper
This is a handy collection of crib sheets for duplicate bridge players, though most of the material is just as relevant for rubber and pairs play. It covers general strategies as well as many fundamental and important conventions: cue bids, trial bids, splinters, multi 2 diamonds and slam bidding methods, for example. The main weakness is a lack of material for card play, though there is a section for leads and signalling.

Regarded as a reference source, rather than a detailed bridge book, it is very useful to have around.
