An Introduction to the Moves, Strategies and Philosophy of Chess from One of the World's Top Chess Players.
With its new dynamic look, this updated edition is a sparkling and enthusiastic introduction to chess - the moves, strategies, and philosophy of the game - from International Grand Master Yasser Seirawan and International Master Jeremy Silman. The book teaches the Seirawan method: force, time, space, and pawn structure. To this end, the authors provide clear explanations of the game's fundamentals.
Dozens of instructive examples; question-and-answer sections; psychological hints; and sample games teach you to strategise and play aggressively while having fun. This book is exuberant and conversational, enlivened by personal anecdotes and engaging historical details.
