Download or read book The Middle Game in Chess by Euwe Book 2 written by Max Euwe and published by Ishi Press. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Book I of their authoritative study Dr Max Euwe and Mr H. Kramer examined the static, or positional, features of the middle game. In the companion volume they turn to its dynamic and subjective features. While the potentialities of a given position, its dangers as well as its opportunities, can be assessed, the manner in which they are handled varies widely according to the intellect and temperament of the player. Indeed, there is no single road to success. In this Book II the authors examine the initiative, the different types of attack on the king, the arts of defense, maneuver and liquidation, and the common failings over the chessboard to which even great players are occasionally subject. Their theme is lavishly illustrated by master games. The final part of the book is devoted to a survey of the personal styles of thirty-eight grandmasters and World Champions from Anderssen to Petrosian, from Morphy to Tal and Fischer. In this volume the former World Champion and his collaborator complete their study of middle game theory. It is a classic unlikely to be superseded and an essential addition to the library of every serious student of chess. From a review of Book I by W. A. Fairhurst in the Glasgow Herald.' "It is difficult to do justice to such a large and important book in a brief review, but I must state at once that all serious students should possess it. . . . The former world champion conceived the work during the Second World War and one is not surprised to learn that its writing took years of intensive study. Volume II dealing with the dynamic elements will be eagerly awaited."

Book Synopsis The Road to Chess Mastery by : Max Euwe
Download or read book The Road to Chess Mastery written by Max Euwe and published by Ishi Press. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chess players often reach a certain level and subsequently seem unable to become any stronger. They attain solid and even promising positions without having any well formulated ideas of how to continue the game. They frequently do not understand the strategic requirements of the niceties which go into the building up of a strong position. The Road to Chess Mastery is a collection of 25 games annotated specifically for the purpose of showing how to improve their chess. All phases of chess technique are included: discussions of the basic ideas behind modern openings, explanations of the handling of typical middle game positions, consideration of certain endgames, examples of the kind of technical analysis a chess player must make before deciding on the next move. Through an introduction that explains how the ordinary chess player can improve in the various phases of the game of chess, and in enlightening commentaries far more extensive than space permits in an ordinary annotated game, former World Champion Dr. Max Euwe shows how a chess player should think, by indicating the moves for all but the most obvious moves of each game. By applying what he learns in this work the reader may, indeed, find himself traveling the road to chess mastery.
Book Synopsis Judgment and Planning in Chess by : Max Euwe
Download or read book Judgment and Planning in Chess written by Max Euwe and published by Ishi Press. This book was released on 2001-11 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a basic book that teaches strategic planning in chess. It is a book that an entire generation of aspiring chess players studied and read, but seems to be nearly forgotten today.Written by a former Chess Champion of the world, this book has as its basis an entirely novel idea which will help players over a real difficulty. Many books have been written on the openings, some knowledge of which is essential to those who wish to enjoy their chess by playing it well. But after eight to fifteen moves or so the book on openings must of necessity break off, and the student is left with the intimation that the position in question is even, or that White or Black stands slightly better. This book is concerned with the game from then on.The author studies a number of orthodox openings and position from the point where the opening stage has come to an end. He describes the characteristics of the position reached, shows why one or the other side stands better, and gives a thoroughly practical demonstration of the means by which the game can be brought to its logical conclusion.
Book Synopsis Understanding Chess Middlegames by : John Nunn
Download or read book Understanding Chess Middlegames written by John Nunn and published by Gambit Publications. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The three-times World Chess Solving Champion distils the most useful middlegame concepts and knowledge into 100 lessons that everyone can understand. Following on from his successful Understanding Chess Endgames, John Nunn turns his attention to the middlegame - the phase of the chess battle where most games are decided, yet the one that has received the least systematic treatment from chess writers. With the outstanding clarity for which he is famous, Nunn breaks down complex problems into bite-sized pieces. In the case of attacking play, we are shown how to decide where to attack, and the specific methods that can be used to pursue the enemy king. Positional play is described in terms of the major structural issues, and how the pieces work around and with the pawns. Nunn explains how to assess when certain pieces are better than others, and how we can make use of this understanding at the board. Readers will never be short of a plan, whatever type of position arises. Each lesson features two inspiring examples from modern chess, annotated honestly and with a keen focus on the main instructive points. Both sides' ideas are emphasized, so we get a clear picture of the ways to disrupt typical plans as well as how to form them.

Book Synopsis The Middle Game in Chess by Euwe by : Max Euwe
Download or read book The Middle Game in Chess by Euwe written by Max Euwe and published by Ishi Press. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In chess, the middle game presents the writer as well as the player with the most formidable problems. Its theory is particularly difficult to formulate with the result that it has, as Dr. Euwe explains, received inadequate treatment in chess literature. Indeed, this work was first conceived during the Second World War and has required many years of intensive study by the former World Champion and his collaborator, Mr. H. Kramer, the Dutch international master and chess writer, for its completion. This volume is devoted to what the authors term the 'static features' of the middle game. The character of a position alters with every move. It is therefor the authors' purpose to identify those features of a given position which have more lasting properties and from them to assess its potentialities. After considering the relative value of the pieces, they examine center formations, closed, open and half-open formations, the struggle for open lines, and weak pawns - illustrating their themes with many examples from master play. In a companion volume they will conclude their survey with an investigation of the dynamic and subjective features of the middle game. This comprehensive study of middle-game theory is a classic unlikely to be superseded. It is a valuable addition to the library of every serious student of chess.

Book Synopsis The Logical Approach to Chess by : Max Euwe
Download or read book The Logical Approach to Chess written by Max Euwe and published by . This book was released on 2011-11 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This has long been one of the standard books on basic chess strategy. It takes the player from the middle game of chess and shows how to take it to a favorable conclusion. TAKING basic principles of military strategy and applying them to the chess board, the authors of this remarkable book develop a logical, and highly original concept of the game which is both novel and unconventional. Chess is, in fact, war between two opponents who both have men to command, and a field on which to meet. From this simple proposition, and the suggestion that the advantage will be with the commander who is thoroughly acquainted with the terrain, the book analyzes logically and succinctly, each phase of the battle. The text is successfully illustrated with examples from the play of other players who were not masters, and the book can be considered as designed for players of some experience, but who have not attained championship status; with the double aim of providing both an analytical study of the army and the field -the board and the men- and a sure, basic insight with which to comprehend the finesse of the Chess-masters. Dr. Euwe's contribution is a guarantee of sound chess and there is, finally, a chapter on the human element; a factor that may well be vital, which suggests that aggressive spirit, keen psychology, and an intelligent grasp of a changing situation, are weapons of prime consequence at all stages of the game.
