Lessons, motivation and coaching to make you a better chess player.
In an ideal world, any aspiring chess player, at almost any level,
would get better with a coach. If that's not possible, having chess
champion coach Thomas Engqvist's book at your side is the next best
thing. In his series of lessons, Engqvist guides you through not
only the most important elements of chess to master but also the
psychology, how to marry knowledge with imagination, and how to
stay motivated. Suitable for older children through to adults, the
lessons are drawn from chess games through history, from the 16th
century to Magnus Carlsen and latest Alpha Zero computer chess. It
features a range of key players, including Steinitz, Lasker,
Nimzowistch, Botvinnik (Soviet chess school), and Fischer. With
clear and accessible annotations to give clarity, the games
highlight the most important lessons to learn and, just as
importantly, how to 'practise' chess. International Master Thomas
Engqvist has travelled the world teaching and coaching chess to a
very high level for decades - and with this book, he can be your
coach too.
