Lisitsin - Key elements of chess strategy
Georgy Lisitsin (1909-72) was a respected Soviet master, theoretician and writer. In 1958 he published a revised edition of his most ambitious work, entitled Strategy and Tactics of Chess, which became one of the most legendary manuals in the Soviet chess school, and no doubt one of the books that motivated the young Bobby Fischer to learn Russian.
Lisitsin broke down Strategy and Tactics into their constituent elements, enabling players of all levels to study chess systematically, learning from carefully selected game fragments and studies. Key Elements of Chess Strategy and its companion volume Key Elements of Chess Tactics are the first ever complete English translations of Lisitsin's classic.
In Key Elements of Chess Strategy, Lisitsin breaks down the Foundations of Strategy into categories such as piece placement, exchanges, weaknesses and prophylaxis, followed by a section on Devising a Strategic Plan, including concepts such as blockading, undermining, the initiative, pawn chains, and planning in the opening.

Gormally - Chess Analysis - Reloaded
Danny Gormally is a Chess Grandmaster stuck in a fugue state. He has forgotten how to analyse - blinded by the brilliance of chess engines, every time he gets stuck he turns on the machine. In this book he attempts to discover his love of analysis and the game of chess by attempting different methods of analysis and calculation. He asks what separates the analysis methods of an amateur player with a Grandmaster, and further still what separates the very best players from super computers. It all culminates in the mind-bogglingly complex “Impossible quiz” where some of the most skilled players in chess are confronted by extremely complex positions.
If that sounds off-putting it shouldn’t be - Gormally breaks down the material in a way that is comprehensible to any amateur player. 262 pages

KASPAROV - Revolution in the 70's - part I
Le mal rasé de Bakou ayant donc changé d'avis en cours de route, voici, en lieu et place de l'attendu My Great Predecessors 6, le premier volume d'une nouvelle série consacrée à l'évolution de la théorie des ouvertures à l'époque moderne - celle-ci démarrant, assez arbitrairement, à la retraite de Fischer. C'est l'occasion de passer en revue aussi bien des systèmes effectivement nés durant les années 70 (Sveshnikov...) que d'autres simplement développés durant la même période (Caro-Kann classique avec 4...Ff5), ou encore certains dont l'heure de gloire viendra en fait nettement plus tard (6.Fe3 dans la Najdorf, 4...a6 dans la Slave). Au total, beaucoup de choses intéressantes, mais une impression globale un peu confuse et un intérêt pratique peut-être discutable. A part çà, nos bons amis anglais ont apparemment décidé que la vache à lait ne meuglait pas encore assez fort : ils en ont donc remis une couche sur le prix. Merci, Everyman !

CHANDLER - Comment battre papa aux échecs
''Celui-là, c'est (on s'en serait douté) How to Beat your Dad at Chess. Le titre étant un peu flou, rappelons qu'il s'agit d'un recueil de 50 tableaux de mat classiques, depuis Anastasie jusqu'à Fischer (appellation douteuse : c'est la combinaison que Fischer a planté à Reshevsky au championnat U.S. 1959, mais on sait qu'il avait piqué l'idée à une analyse soviétique - et en plus, la partie ne s'était pas terminée par le mat, Reshevsky ayant préféré sacrifier sa dame...). Amusant, et contrairement à ce que suggère le titre, pas réservé aux enfants.''
