Practical Chess Strategy - Hardcover

Wouldn't it be nice if we had a set of rules that always directed us towards the best move in any chess position? That is precisely what Grandmaster Julen Arizmendi has been searching for during his long and successful coaching career, and this is where he shares his verdict: it cannot be done, but we should still be trying! Practical Chess Strategy will teach you to break down any position into its underlying elements and apply core concepts that will guide you towards the best move and plan. GM Arizmendi deals with cases where our intuition fails us, teaches us how to assess imbalances, refutes common misconceptions about strategy, and provides exercises to test and reinforce the reader's newfound understanding.
