A Guide to Standard Bidding

Bidding Guide  

Bridge Bidding Guide by Richard Pavlicek contains lookup tables for most common bidding situations. The rules are based on “Standard American” bidding as taught by Richard Pavlicek. The text was recently updated to make negative doubles the standard treatment (see “Coping with Interference”) rather than an option.
