Bent Larsen was one of the most influential chess players of the
20th century. He was a four-time Candidate for the World
Championship and the first westerner to seriously challenge the
Soviet Union's post-war dominance of the game. Larsen was admired
by fans for his creative and combative style. He was a risk-taker
who always sought complex positions. He felt completely at home in
defense and was an opportunistic attacker. While other grandmasters
would shy away from offbeat openings, Larsen would embrace and
develop them. In this book, former American Open Champion Cyrus
Lakdawala studies his favourite Larsen games and examines Larsen's
skills in the key areas of attack and defense, initiative,
exploiting imbalances, accumulating advantages and endgame play. He
demonstrates clearly how we can all improve by learning from
Larsen's play. Move by Move provides an ideal platform to study
chess. By continually challenging the reader to answer probing
questions throughout the book, the Move by Move format greatly
encourages the learning and practicing of vital skills just as much
as the traditional assimilation of knowledge. Carefully selected
questions and answers are designed to keep you actively involved
and allow you to monitor your progress as you learn. This is an
excellent way to improve your chess skills and knowledge. *Learn
