Here's a recent law review article about defending depositions: "Playing by the Rules: Strategies for Defending Depositions," by Sandra F. Gavin, The Law Review of Michigan State University Detroit College of Law (1999) (.pdf version).
The article contains a survey of deposition rules in various jurisdictions and a helpful section titled "Objections, Instructions and Seeking Court Intervention."
The link to this article did not work. I do not think that it is any longer posted on the university's site.
