## Description

Author: Jeremy Silman Pages: 360 Pages Publication Years: 1998

Review: Wonderfully written and thorough introduction to Chess Strategies. - Encyclopedic introduction to the various elements which comprise the general concept of 'Chess Strategies.' Silman uses his excellent educational approach, combined with his great sense of humor to make these basic elements come alive in written prose and be easily remembered. Book contains the essential factors that lead one to assess the strengths and weaknesses in one's own and your opponent's chess positions. Understanding, searching for, and assessing the importance of these elements enable one to come up with reasonable plans to improve one's own position and create weaknesses in the other player's position. This in turn should help you come up with a reasonable number of strategic candidate moves to try to carry out your plan. If you are having issues with coming up with any plans after finishing the opening and also finding candidate moves when the position lacks any clear tactical opportunities then this is a must have book to own and read.
Review: Chess Strategy and Techniques at their best by the best teacher! - This book came into my awareness after I watched the series, "How To Play Chess" on desertcart's channel of The Great Courses. Jeremy Silman, humble International Master and an incredible teacher of the game, makes learning chess fun with his vast knowledge of the history of the game and its major players. More importantly, his wit and personality insights make learning the game more fun because in many cases, these historical figures were more unbalanced than most of us, and yet they seemed to be able to thrive on these 64 squares of real estate! He makes learning the game fun, entertaining, informative and most of all instructive; thank you, Mr. Silman!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My favorite chess book.
*by J***N on January 11, 2020*

This book is easy to read and comprehend. Seems like today there are countless chess books on the shelf. But this one stands out to me most. I'm new to chess and i was searching for a great instruction guide type of book. This one hit that dead on. Inside you find a mass of relevant thoughts. My favorite part of the book is formations. If you are new to chess i recommend this read. This book cuts through the non-sense and gives you raw goodies... I like goodies.
