Rewire Your Chess Brain is not your average chess book. It does not
deal with opening theory or middlegame strategy. It focuses purely
on problems and studies, all of which are the results of artificial
construction rather than scenes from real-life battles. In a chess
study, White has to play and win (or draw). In a chess puzzle,
White has to force mate in a stipulated number of moves. The
starting positions in both forms rarely resemble anything found
over the board in real life play. However, the solutions are
invariably surprising and often quite beautiful. The best examples
of both forms have often been compared to great works of art.
However, these are not mere gallery pieces, lacking practical
application in real life play. Solving these puzzles can be
extremely challenging and will, without question, improve the "real
world" tactical ability of anyone attempting to do so. Prolific
chess author and coach Cyrus Lakdawala has been intrigued by
studies and problems all his life. When training his students he
often sets them studies and problems to solve. Many of them who
have adopted this technique have seen extraordinary increases in
their chess ratings. In this book Lakdawala assembles the problems
and studies that are most effective to improve tactical ability.
Work your way through this book and you will undoubtedly see the
results in your own games.
