Amateur's Mind

Zabawki i klocki dla Nastolatków i Dorosłych > Szachy > Inne wydawnictwa

The Amateur's Mind takes the student on a journey through his own mind and returns him to the chess board with a wealth of new-found knowledge and the promise af a significant gain in strength. Most amateurs possess erroneous thinking processes that remain with them throughout their chess lives. These flaws in their mental armor result in stinging defeats and painful reversals. Books can be bought and studied, lessons can be taken, but in the end these elusive problems always prove to be extremely difficult to eradicate. Seeking a solution to this dilemma, Mr. Silman wrote down the thoughts of his students while they played actual games, analysed them, and catalogued the most common misconceptions that arose. He then eradicated these mental traps by offering advice, rules of conduct and strategy, and penetrating psychological insight. This second edition of The Amateur's Mind greatly expands on the information contained in the popular first edition. In particular, the addition of twenty-six tests and their detailed explanations, add more than one hundred pages of instruction-rich material. International Chess Master Jeremy Silman is a world-class teacher, writer and player who has won the American Open, the Natíonal Open and the U.S. Open. The author of thirty-two best-selling chess books including How To Reassess Your Chess and The Complete Book of Chess Strategy , he has also written dozens of articles that have appeared in magazines throughout the world. Dr. Anthony Saidy, International Master, author of 'The March Of Chess Ideas': "In my amateur days, l never dreamed of getting lessons like these! Jeremy Silman offers clear, eye-opening insights. Silman has walked the walk, and here he talks the talk." John Watson, International Master, author of 'Play the French': "Mr. Silman has became the leading chess writer in America. My students swear by his work." Joel Benjamin, International Grandmaster, 1987 and 1997 U.S. Champion: "The Amateur's Mind is eminently readable and instruction-rich. Jeremy Silman never disappoints those who seriously wish to improve their game."

Grandmaster Repertoire 8 - The Grunfeld Defence Volume One by Boris Avrukh (miękka okładka)

Zabawki i klocki dla Nastolatków i Dorosłych > Szachy > Debiuty

Wersja językowa książki - angielska.Miękka okładka. Grandmaster Repertoire is a series of high quality chess books based on the main lines, written by strong grandmasters. The aim is to provide the reader with a complete repertoire at a level good enough for elite tournaments, and certainly also for the club championship. Grandmaster Repertoire 8 - The Grünfeld Defence offers a repertoire for Black against 1.d4. Avrukh's two previous Grandmaster Repertoire books for White received universal rave reviews and have been hugely influential on chess players all over the world, including at the very highest level.Volume One covers lines such as the Fianchetto variation, the Russian variation with 4.Nf3 and 5.Qb3, Bf4 lines, Bg5 lines, and all White's minor tries. Boris Avrukh is a chess grandmaster from Israel. He is an Olympiad gold medalist, former World Junior Champion and analysis partner of World Championship finalists.ISBN 978-1-906552-75-6 - 352 pages - Published 24 June 2011Reviews"Boris Avrukh's two-volume work The Grünfeld Defense, published recently by Quality Chess, is more than 600 pages long. The Israeli grandmaster presents ideas from Black's point of view, mixing known games with many original analyses. It is a wonderful Grünfeld manual that gives tournament players advice on where to move and what to avoid." GM Lubomir Kavalek , Huffington Post (full columnhereand also atChessBase)"Avrukh does a fabulous job of piecing together a repertoire, presenting it in digestible format, and then analyzing the chosen lines in incredible detail. All while offering hundreds of improvements over existing theory... The variety of moves goes from simple alternatives to outright improvements that change the evaluation of the line as a whole. The latter are obviously the ones that make the study and subsequent use of the lines exciting. Playing against a reasonably well-prepared opponent in this opening can be difficult, but facing them packing the armory in these volumes will be a whole different ball game.For the strong to elite players who employ the main lines of the Grünfeld, these books are must-buys. Such players will love these books and refer to them repeatedly. Those ranking just below that will also be able to benefit, while others will likely do better with something aimed at their level. My assessment of these books: 6/6 Stars" Carsten Hansen , ChessCafe (full review)"Volume 1 impressively deals first of all with White's third move options, which goes further than the call of normal duty... The material is definitely up to date... These are books for serious players; club players may find themselves a little bit out of their depth. The index of variations in volume 1 runs to no fewer than nine pages (some opening books don't even have chapters that long). Despite the narrowness of the repertoire, readers will find more than enough top-quality material to enable them to use the Grunfeld Defence very successfully, even at very high levels." Sean Marsh (full review)"As always, Avrukh takes all known theory and then fights to find what he deems to be the most critical lines. Having done that, he analyzes it to death and in the process comes up with an enormous amount of new ideas, most of which he happily publishes!Both volumes of Avrukh's The Grünfeld Defence are wonderful, and any Grünfeld aficionado will grab these puppies as fast as he can. However, I also feel that anyone that plays 1.d4 will also be forced to buy these books. Another magnificent job by Avrukh - if you play either side of this opening, why aren't these books heading from the Quality Chess storage to your bookshelf right now?" IM Jeremy Silman

The Strategic Nimzo-Indian: A Complete Guide to the Rubinstein Variation

Zabawki i klocki dla Nastolatków i Dorosłych > Szachy > Książki New In Chess

The Nimzo-Indian Defence continues to be one of the most important chess openings, both at club level and with top players. In recent years it has undergone a number of significant changes and it#8217;s high time for a thorough look at the current state of affairs. Top grandmaster Ivan Sokolov is the perfect authority to do so. The Strategic Nimzo-Indian: A Complete Guide to the Rubinstein Variation is the first of a two-part series. In this ground-breaking and clearly structured first volume, Sokolov investigates all lines after the move 4.e3. Volume 2 will be about 4.a3, the Sämisch Variation. Inspired by great masters like Mikhail Botvinnik, Ivan Sokolov has played the Rubinstein Variation all his life, and he has even beaten World Champion Garry Kasparov with it. Although play can become very sharp, the Nimzo-Indian requires a profound positional understanding. Ivan Sokolov does not simply give variations, but provides clear explanations of the structures and plans in the various branches, and presents new ideas and resources for both Black and White. Each chapter ends with a summary containing key strategic and tactical advice. Ivan Sokolov is a top grandmaster who was born in Bosnia in 1968. He was Yugoslav champion in 1988 and Dutch champion in 1995 and 1998. He rose to the number 12 spot in the FIDE world rankings. In his rich career Sokolov has beaten world chess champions like Garry Kasparov, Vladimir Kramnik and Viswanathan Anand.

Aron Nimzowitsch 1928-1935

Zabawki i klocki dla Nastolatków i Dorosłych > Szachy > Książki New In Chess

ChessCafe Book of the Year Finalist! English Chess Federation Book of the Year Finalist! Every chess player who is serious about improving his game, should study the lessons of Aron Nimzowitsch (1886-1935). 'My System' (published in 1925) and 'Chess Praxis' (1928) had tremendous impact and made Nimzowitsch one of the most influential chess thinkers of the 20thcentury. His books continue to be printed, sold and read to this day. During several decades of research, German chess historian Rudolf Reinhardt compiled, from an immense variety of sources, all the games Nimzowitsch played after 1928. They are presented with notes by Nimzowitsch himself and, in some cases, by his contemporaries. In addition to the games, Reinhardt also collected the articles and essays that Nimzowitsch wrote during that period. Reinhardt#8217;s collection starts where Nimzowitsch#8217;s second volume Chess Praxis ends. It offers a unique view of the chess world of the late 1920s and 1930s, its top tournaments and the state of theory. More importantly, it portrays Nimzowitsch the chess player and author in the last seven years of his short life. It#8217;s all there: the fights, the competitors and the polemics, the theories and teachings,in the incomparable style of the master: pointed, elegant, precise and highly original. Peter Anderberg, Schach Magazine: #8220;If Nimzowitsch had published an additionalthird part of his two-volume #8216;System#8217; series, he woulddefinitely have used a large part of the material that is collectedin this book.#8221; KARL Magazine: #8220;A must for every fan of the great teacher of the Hypermodern.#8221; Michael McGuerty, ChessCafe: "A great collection. It is well worth your time, and you will likely find this more entertaining and instructive than many modern-day publications." Sean Marsh, CHESS Magazine: "A wonderful book. It's a real labor of love containing a veritable bonanza of fresh Nimzowitsch material." The Judges of the ECF Book of the Year Award: "The blurb describes it well: 'The unauthorised sequel to 'My System' and 'Chess Praxis'. A historically valuable book, which also contains much stimulating and opinionated writing that is worth reading today." John D. Warth, Chess Club of Southern Indiana: "Conveys the weight and authrority of a modern classic: an insightful collection of brilliant games that satisfy with every page. This authoritative work deserves a place of prominence on the shelf of every serious student of the game." Matthew Sadler, former British Champion : "A wonderful collection and a joy to read." Rochade Europa Magazine: #8220;The book convinces throughout. Reinhardt#8217;s work will be of vital importance for all future study of Nimzowitsch#8217;s life and career." G ary Lane, British Chess Magazine: "A wonderful collection of Nimzowitsch#8217;s games and thoughts, which is destined to be a chess classic." Max Euwe Centre, Amsterdam: "This book is incredibly complete, a book by a chess lover for other chess lovers. It isfull of uniquely annotated gamesof a technically very gifted player with a absolutely original style." Paul Kane, Manchester Chess Federation: "Chockfull of wonderful chess and is a significant contribution to our understanding of Nimzowitsch#8217;s thought. His personality shines through in both the articles and the annotations, and his profundity is everywhere apparent." Richard Vedder, Schakers.info: "I like this book a lot. It is a hefty tome full o f material that we can learn from, also in 2014."

Questions of Modern Chess Theory by Isaac Lipnitsky (miękka okładka)

Wersja językowa książki - angielska. Questions of Modern Chess Theory is the lost masterpiece of Soviet chess literature. It was written by a 2-time Ukrainian Champion, and published in the Soviet Union in 1956. Russian experts say it is one of the most influential chess books of the 20th century, yet it was never published in English. Isaac Lipnitsky was a major player on the Soviet chess scene just after World War Two, strong enough to take the scalps of Keres, Smyslov and Petrosian. He would no doubt have been a household name had he not tragically passed away at a young age in 1959.The missing link between Nimzowitsch#8217;s My System and chess today, updated for the 21st century. Publication Date 9 September 2008 ISBN: 978-1-906552-03-9 - 232 pagesReviews"Quality Chess also published some of the Soviet classic chess books, recommended for tournament players... Isaac Lipnitsky'sQuestions of Modern Chess Theorywas widely read by players of my generation, including Bobby Fischer. In the original version from 1956, the Ragozin variation of the Queen's Gambit found its way into Fischer's repertoire. It is not included, but the book gives many great examples of dynamic opening play." GM Lubomir Kavalek , Huffington Post"Highly Recommended."

Amateur to IM: Proven Ideas and Training Methods

Zabawki i klocki dla Nastolatków i Dorosłych > Szachy > Wydawnictwo Mongoose Press

International Master Jonathan Hawkins was a relatively slow starter in the world of chess.Learning the game at the age of eight, he was a keen junior who won a number of localtournaments. But by his own admission, #8216;by the time I was in my mid-teens my age-to-playing-strength ratio was distinctly average.#8217;He started to study chess very seriously in his late teens and achieved a rapid rise through the ranks. He became a FIDE Master in 2008 and earned the title of International Master in 2010. 2011 brought Jonathan two Grandmaster norms. One of them was earned at the super-strong British Championship, in which he outscored numerous Grandmasters to share third place. How did Jonathan Hawkins manage to go from being an average tournament competitor to a player on the brink of clinching the Grandmaster title? It took just three years for him to become a FIDE Master, an International Master and to achieve his first two Grandmaster norms.The secret was knowing what to study and how to learn as efficiently as possible. Focusing his attention firmly on the endgame, Jonathan devised a number of building blocks and identified a number of very important areas of study. The result of his hard work was a meteoric rise through the ranks, as he became firmly established as a prominent GM killer on the English tournament circuit.These pages reveal the secrets of his notebooks for the first time. IM Hawkins presents special material aimed to help you become a much better practical player, one armed with a deeper understanding of key aspects of chess.A careful study of the lessons presented in this book should enable the chess student to gain a significant improvement in both performance and rating.

Mayhem in the Morra by Marc Esserman (miękka okładka)

Zabawki i klocki dla Nastolatków i Dorosłych > Szachy > Debiuty

Wersja językowa książki - angielska. Miękka okładka. Mayhem in the Morra offers a complete fighting repertoire for White against the Sicilian with 1.e4 c5 2.d4 cxd4 3.c3. The Morra Gambit is a popular weapon at club level, but can it be effective at GM level? Marc Esserman believes so and he has 2700-rated scalps to back up his view.Esserman is the world's leading expert on the Morra Gambit and he shares all his secrets and many novelties in a lively witty style. The Morra leads to exciting gambit play, so some players decline the offer with 3...Nf6 - Esserman also shows how White can attack this cautious defence.Don't be afraid of the Sicilian - unleash Mayhem in the Morra!#8226; A complete anti-Sicilian repertoire #8226; Ideal for attacking players #8226; Hundreds of novelties and improvements Marc Esserman is an IM from the USA who has played and analysed the Morra Gambit for most of his life.Published 13 July 2012 - 360 pages - ISBN 978-1-907982-20-0 Foreword by GM Larry Christiansen: "In 2011, when preparing for the US Championship, I decided to employ the Morra Gambit as a surprise weapon if given the chance. Marc supplied me with a vast amount of analysis and novelties for that tournament and I became convinced that the gambit was not only dangerous, but perfectly sound. There is no greater authority in the world on this line than Marc Esserman and he lays it all out there in this book."Reviews"A quick glance at the cover and you just know that Mayhem in the Morra is going to be lots of fun. And it proves to be so... The imaginative Marc Esserman actually has a real talent for writing." GM Glenn Flear , New in Chess"Rarely has one person had so much influence on reviving a variation long thought to be dead. Esserman has advocated the Smith-Morra for many years as a player and now he does so as a writer and theoretician...Mayhem in the Morra is useful not only for the many new ideas and theoretical novelties it offers but also for the strategic explanations. Easerman believes the Morra is not just about cheap tricks but has a deep positional underpinning. He does an excellent job of explaining the intricacies of this opening that goes well beyond just presenting the state of theory as he sees it." IM John Donaldson "While the Morra doesn't refute the Sicilian, as the cover of the book cheekily suggests, it will definitely make Black's life difficult; especially if he doesn't enjoy defending complicated and passive positions. I love everything about the present book: the passion, the enthusiasm, the original input, the writing, and the many entertaining games and variations. It is a true labor of love and I heartily recommend it to anyone who wants to sharpen their game against the Sicilian or perhaps just have a truly fascinating alternative to the mountain of theory in the conventional main lines of the Sicilian Defense." Carsten Hansen , ChessCafe (full review)"Mayhem in the Morra! is one of the best and funniest opening books I#8217;ve ever read, and there#8217;s hardly anything to criticize. Even his sometimes revengeful-sounding style is usually compensated by realistic goals, such as when he acknowledges the strength of the 'Improved Siberian' move order for Black (1.e4 c5 2.d4 cxd4 3.c3 dxc3 4.Nxc3 e6 5.Nf3 Nc6 6.Bc4 Nf6!), commenting that in this line 'the battle rages fierce' still.Esserman#8217;s book is an outstanding example of out-of-the-box thinking, profound enthusiasm for a subject and a lot of hard, hard work. It#8217;s hilarious as well as ambitious; arrogant as well as amiable. It describes how an opening can make you sad and happy at the same time, depending on the way it is treated and how it treats you.Marc Esserman has written a celebration of chess in all its imaginative richness.
