Nunn's Chess Endings
Book (italiano):
<DIV>In this major two-volume work, renowned endgame theoretician John Nunn teaches the skills that are most important to success in practical endgames.<BR><BR>Going beyond standard texts, Dr Nunn shows how to apply knowledge of standard endgames to find the right methods in tricky real-life practical situations - even when they differ greatly from the idealized forms given by traditional endgame manuals.<BR><BR>* Identifies new and important motifs which occur repeatedly in over-the-board play <BR>* Tactical elements are heavily featured <BR>* In many examples, previous analysis is corrected <BR>* Focuses on endgames that are susceptible to concrete analysis <BR>* Geared to the over-the-board player - no composed or artificial positions <BR>* Ideas underlying analysis - however complex - are richly explained in words <BR><BR>Nunn shows that lack of familiarity with key ideas can cause important ideas and themes to be missed even by very strong players. We discover that a staggering amount of previously published endgame analysis is simply wrong, and that many of the standard guidelines are at best partially true.<BR><BR>This second volume focuses on rook endgames - the most common and important category of practical endgames. Nunn also covers endings with rooks and minor pieces, a wide and rich area of strategic endgame play that is universally recognized as vital for chess mastery, but nevertheless neglected in chess literature.<BR><BR></DIV>
