This is the second book of the Thinkers' Chess Academy series. In
the first book we started at a beginner's level with checkmates in
1, 2 or 3 moves and the most common tactical motifs. If you have
already worked with the first book you will now be much more
experienced and ready for some more difficult lessons. We will
start with 50 combinations to refresh our memory of the motifs from
the first book. Th e chess friends who have not read the first book
can treat it as a kind of self-test. If you cannot solve many of
the examples it may be better to go back and work through the first
book again. It is not a good idea to leave basic knowledge out. It
will certainly hinder your progress if you do so. In this book we
will not only show you more tactical motifs, but we will also give
you an introduction to the basics of chess strategy. You will learn
the most important elements of strategy which will help you to find
better plans and to understand positions better. At the end of the
book a chapter with 50 checkmates of 5+ moves will show you
techniques of how to attack or hunt the opponent's king and also
how to improve your calculation skills and your imagination at the
chessboard. Now enough of the prologue, let us go to work and learn
lots about chess tactics and strategy! Have a lot of fun while
studying chess and enjoy your improvement! Yours, Thomas Luther
Grandmaster and FIDE senior trainer
