En fait de stratégie, c'est plutôt un dictionnaire des concepts échiquéens dont il s'agit. Pour mémoire, car l'intérêt pratique de l'ouvrage semble limité.

Olibris nous propose coup sur coup, deux nouvelles traductions de qualité, puisqu'il s'agit de deux ouvrages du GM Viktor Moskalenko dont la réputation d'excellent auteur n'est plus à faire. Sa grande spécialité ce sont les livres d'ouvertures, ou il privilégie d'expliquer les idées importantes plutôt que de vous noyer dans les variantes.

Ici il traite de 2 systèmes hyper trendy, l' attaque Trompowsky et le système de Londres. 201 pages

There are already many endgame books, so why this one? Well, most books deal with elementary endgames, or are very advanced and contain few exercises. But you have only really learned something when you can execute it at the board, with the clock ticking. And solving exercises is very close to this scenario.
The authors present 450 endgame exercises designed to improve your understanding of endgame theory and sharpen your endgame expertise. Starting with the chapter “Specific Positions to Know,” they take you on a journey with just the right mix of practical advice and theoretical knowledge.
Endgame Corner is detailed, well-researched, informative and in-depth, with both authors sharing their experiences, recent games and new examples... I really like this material and hope that you will as well. If you are fascinated by endings, or feel the need to improve this part of your game, this book is a “must” addition to your library. – From the Foreword by Wesley So
