Product Description

Synopsis
Discussing how chess players can improve their middle-game performance, this guide explains how to analyze the strategic and tactical elements of a position, and how to form a plan and to check that is it sound. The main part of the book presents 30 tests in a series of increasing complexity. In each position the reader is invited to spend about half an hour choosing one of the three suggested continuations. The answers are awarded points on a scale of 0-10, and a self-rating table then converts the total number of points obtained into an ELO rating and, for English players, a BCF rating.

4.0 out of 5 stars Get into good habits for OTB play & game analysis, 8 April 2002
By A Customer
This book contains a series of 30 increasingly complex positions testing positional play, planning and tactics. For each position three different detailed plans are offered. You have to choose the correct plan and/or refute the incorrect plans. Sounds daunting? Well, with a few example games the authors also help you learn to analyze, plan and carry out the plan. The authors recommend spending about 30 minutes analyzing each test position without moving the pieces. I haven't come across another book like this and IMHO this book is much more useful than the usual 100's of mate in 2,3,4 books.
