Poor quality paper
I bought Winning Chess Tactics from the same series and paper was white and nicely printed. The strategies book however is on much cheaper paper. Such a shame. Surprised as same series bought only couple of weeks apart.

underlined
Great book but all the text in the book is for some reason underlined. Makes it very hard to read in Kindle.

I had gotten Yasser's book on Openings a few months back, and I beleive the two of them (this one and the previous one on Openings) are a great combo for amateur to intermediate players. I myself am rated about 1600-1700 (strong C class player), that's according to a few tests I've done online and with my local chess club as well. With a lot of on board practice, I am sure any amateur can take these two jewels and sharpen their overall game. These books are really easy to follow and I was astonished how easy it was to play out the examples while reading the chapters. I have been playing for close to 10 years and I wish they had these books around when I was starting off. However, one has to mention that you need to practice, practice and practice! LOL I know it may be a little hard to find a person to play with on a regular basis, so please join a club/play with people as much as you can. With a wife, baby and full time job, I agree that finding time to study these books and my game is not all that obvious. I do not play online against a computer, I don't like the experience. I prefer to play against another human being (in person) and have that sort of interaction. Now, I digress, sorry about that... In summary: buy this series, you won't regret it! You'll see that after a few dozen games, you'll develop your own style based on Yasser's simple, yet effective strategies and be a better chess player. Cheers!

I'm 1500 chess com rapid and this book is amazing, examples are good and explanations are clear. The book is modern and much better than for example My System by Nimzowitch.

Bom livro de Yasser Serawan. Gosto mais de seus videos, mas o livro é interessante e possui boas dicas para melhorarmos nosso nível no xadrez.
