SEIRAWAN - Play winning Chess
Premier volume - on dira d'introduction - d'un cours complet en six (trois sont sortis, les trois autres doivent suivre dans quelques mois) dû au plus célèbre joueur américain actuel. Le plan du livre est original : il consiste pour l'essentiel en quatre chapitres consacrés chacun à l'un des aspects fondamentaux du jeu : Force, Temps, Espace et Structure (de pions évidemment). De nombreux exercices animent l'ensemble, qui s'achève par huit parties complètes commentées. Un très bon ouvrage pour débutants... anglophones.
McDonald - Pressure Play
Pressure Play by Neil McDonald. Have you ever been tortured at the chessboard? If so, then you have probably been a victim of pressure play.
Elite players are brilliant exponents of pressure play. In situations where they have either a tiny advantage or no advantage at all they are highly adept at constantly setting problems for their unfortunate opponents. The position on the board may appear lifeless but they can probe and find plans and regroupings that will constantly ask their opponents difficult questions. These can be countered only by continual alert and accurate defence and we all know how difficult and wearing that can be.
The arch exponent of pressure play is world champion Magnus Carlsen. Carlsen is superb in this area of the game and consistently defeats world class opposition from simplified positions where he has no advantage whatsoever. How does he do it?
In this book, the highly experienced author and coach Neil McDonald analyses the finest examples of pressure play. In doing so he teases out the fundamental concepts that enable players like Carlsen to torture their opponents mercilessly.
- Paralyse the enemy pieces.
- Target the weakest squares on the board.
- Increase and exploit a space advantage.
Master pressure play and it will be your opponent on the rack, not you. 352 pages
McDONALD - The Art of Planning in Chess
Bagheri/Salehzadeh - Understanding chess Exchanges
Understanding Chess Exchanges by Bagheri & Salehzadeh. Have you ever wondered how chess grandmasters always seem to know which pieces need to be exchanged? Or how an attack is influenced by the number of pieces on the board? When should we keep the queens on, and when should we switch to an endgame?
Understanding Chess Exchanges shares expert insights into using exchanges as a strategic weapon. Your newfound knowledge will then be tested using exercises taken from elite modern practice. With a particular focus on Magnus Carlsen – the master of exchanges – this book reveals the principles behind a vital part of chess strategy.
Chess mastery is the art of knowing when principles should be followed and when they must be broken. This book guarantees that you will not only become familiar with the typical guidelines, but also learn about their exceptions. Filled with tips, principles and practical advice, Understanding Chess Exchanges is an invaluable asset to a chess player’s arsenal! 352 pages
Czerwin - Chess Progress
A book for beginners or teachers. It's a well-done book, the author is a famous professor in the USA and more specifically in Illinois. His method seems clear: the study of simple positions with few pieces on the chessboard, and the further you go, the more you'll have pieces and complex positions to resolve. This method isn't really new, but it should work perfectly.
PSAKHIS - Advanced Chess Tactics
Malgré le titre, ce livre de l'ex-champion d'URSS (comme cela semble loin) n'est pas un manuel de tactique, mais un traité sur l'attaque - ce qui est assez différent. Il nous expose en effet, à travers des parties complètes amplement commentées (puisées dans les carrières de Tal, Petrosian et naturellement lui-même), les thèmes offensifs propres à différents types d'ouvertures et de positions (Sicilienne, Caro, pion-dame isolé) Nourri d'une énorme expérience, servi par un style vivant, voilà un livre qui sort du lot.
