Invisible Chess Moves

Invisible Chess Moves

Książka opisująca momenty zaćmienia szachowego, kiedy nawet najlepsi gracze nie są w stanie dostrzec kontynuacji mimo, że ruch którego szukają jest na wyciągnięcie ręki i niejednokrotnie wydaje się zbyt oczywisty przez co jest pomijany. 
Opisane przeoczenia są ciekawy spojrzeniem na psychologiczny aspekt szachów. Uświadomienie sobie w jakich sytuacjach dochodzi do takich przeoczeń może wpłynąć na poprawę gry zawodnika. Książka dzieli się na rozdziały i rozpatruje kilka rodzajów ,,niewidzialnych'' ruchów i zawiera wiele przykładów z partii szachistów na najwyższym poziomie. Bardzo pouczająca lektura.

Why You Lose at Chess: 21st Century Edition of a Landmark Classic

Why You Lose at Chess: 21st Century Edition of a Landmark Classic

The Way to Better Chess! Why You Lose at Chess is vintage Reinfeld. He pulls no punches, showing the reader why he or she loses chess games. This is quite a remarkable feat when you think about it, because he never saw any of the games the vast majority of his readers played. But Fred knew the thinking that lurks behind poor chess decisions, and he let us all know what is wrong or irrelevant or misguided about the types of moves he witnessed far too often. Beginning with a chapter on self-appraisal, he

Better thinking, better chess

Better thinking, better chess

Finding strong moves doesn't simply depend on how much you know about chess. In fact, greater conceptual knowledge makes choosing a move more complex as it increases the number of directions your mind can take. More important is optimizing your thought process. Grandmaster Joel Benjamin knows that pointing out the moves his students missed is just half the job. They need to understand that they were looking in the wrong direction.  Chess engines offer little help in this because they cant explain why
