Riassunto

Winner of the CJA 2019 Best Instructional Book Award


Finding strong moves does not simply depend on how much you know about chess. In fact, greater knowledge often makes choosing a move more complex because it increases the number of directions your mind can take. His many years as a chess trainer have taught grandmaster Joel Benjamin how fundamental failings in their thought process cause his students to make mistakes. Pointing out the moves his students missed was just half the job. He needed to explain why they didn't arrive at the right move. This book teaches how you can improve the structure and effectiveness of your thinking when sitting at the board. How to look for the right things. Joel Benjamin concentrates on a wide array practical issues that players frequently have to deal with. By applying a grandmaster's train of thought club players will more often arrive at strong moves and substantially improve their game.
