Product Description
A complete overview of proven chess principles that teaches readers how to deploy their pieces using the right moves at the right time to build small advantages into effective, long-range strategies.
Amazon.com ReviewThis is the third of Seirawan’s four-volume series, which takes the reader from chess greenhorn to a player advanced enough to understand grandmaster play. Here, Seirawan shows how to set long-range goals for a game and systematically gain a superior position. His deft explanations give anyone with basic chess knowledge (covered in his previous books) the insights to leap levels in play. As usual, he tackles the subject with an infectious enthusiasm, communicating the sporting thrill as each piece of a meticulous plan comes together. Throughout the book, engrossing chess puzzles help teach strategic points.
honestly i dont recommend this books instead go for the classics they can be better or the pandolfini books as basic introduction

i’m a 1000-1100 player and this book rocked my world. my rating unfortunately hasn’t sky rocketed but i attribute that to the string of 1200-1500 players i keep playing online. dude but this book is sooo good. it’ll walk you through really basic yet amazingly profound principles of chess. things as simple as “Playing with a material advantage.” there is also great stuff on pawn play, creating weaknesses and territorial domination (also more pawn play commentary). i highly recommend it for beginners who have already played a bunch and are looking for that next level. it also has this phat chapter at the end with biographicals of master strategists (as opposed to tactitians and what not) and some of their great games. he has capablanca turning alekhine into a little school girl. and rubinstein just laying a colossal smackdown on tarrasch making his tarrasch defense look like so much butter.
