Basically this book isnt worth the trees that were killed for the paper. If you really wanna throw your money away, why not donate to charity. Do not give money to some bogus over rated no talent coach who writes book after book. As you read the stupid questions asked, you ask yourself what was I thinking. The final question in this book is “What is born every minute?”. You can answer this question two ways, buy this book, or realize the truth…

This book does what a fortune teller does by being very general. And too general to be of much use. This book doesn’t contain examples using real chess positions. Just a lot of written words and no exact examples of how to use them. You are better off buying another chess book.

Well guys to tell you the truth when i first had the book it seemed like a big waste of money but after giving it a chance ,i was realy happy to buy it becuase you can benfit from every page in it ,when i was teaching my brother the game ,he almost asked me all those bloody QQQQs so i went back for things that i couldn’t have the right words to describe.I think it is a good Ref,and it is better than a lot of claimed chess books…

Ever been asked a stupid chess question? or a chess question you know the answer to but don’t know how to explain it? or how about a chess question your just not sure of? belive me I’ve been there.
Well here’s the answers simply explained.
I’m not a fan of Pandolfini’s book by any means, But this is one of his books I really liked.
545 questions in 13 chapters, like having a masters brain to pick 24/7.

This is not a book on how to improve your chess. It is not a book on opening theory or a synopsis on endgame technique. It’s a sound, comprehensive work from one of the best known, most respected chess instructors in America. Bruce Pandolfini answers the questions that chess students have asked, or are likely to ask, and he answers them in a complete but concise manner. There are around 540 questions in this book: Dig deep and I’m sure you’ll find one that you would likely ask.
A solid reference work that will hold a special place in one’s chess library. I just hope Mr. Pandolfini revises the book, if only to update on whatever happened to Bobby Fischer.
