What exactly makes the greatest players of all time, such as Magnus
Carlsen, Bobby Fischer, and Garry Kasparov stand out from the rest?
The basic aspects of chess (calculation, study of opening theory,
and technical endgame ability) are of course of great importance.
However, the more mysterious part of chess ability lies within the
thought process. In particular: * How does one evaluate certain
moves to be better than others? * How does one improve their feel
of the game? This book will tackle this woefully underexplored
aspect of chess: the logic behind the game. It will explain how
chess works at a fundamental level. Topics include: * What to think
about when evaluating a position. * How to formulate and execute
plans. * How to generate and make use of the initiative. The reader
also has plenty of opportunities to test their decision-making by
attempting 270 practical exercises. These are mostly designed to
develop understanding, as the justification of the moves is more
important than the actual correct answer.
