Learn Chess the Right Way: Book 3: Mastering Defensive Techniques

More emphasis needs to be placed on defending for beginner players, and this is one of the few books that would do that. The whole series is good for those who know the rules and little else, but in my opinion this is the book that has content that is hardest to find elsewhere.

Susan shares her thinking process and gives lots of examples

I really wanted to like this book, but the KINDLE version is screwed up, as about a THIRD of all the puzzles do NOT tell you which color is to move!!! Absolute pathetic trash.

I posted this review on the Chessable edition 4 months ago.Excellent book, just like the first 2. The books in this series seem to be getting progressively more difficult and build on each other in a systematic way. The target audience is mainly beginners but stronger players can also get a lot out of it by using Polgar's books for speed tactics training.5/5 stars, highly recommended.

Learn Chess the Right Way series is a must to own book series for coaches, parents and students. It is very well written and provides lots of essential materials for beginner and advanced chess players. Highly recommend!

Defense in tactics is rarely addressed, this is the best book of the series.

For novices. MY students who are rated 800 to 950 on chess.com find them easy.
