![]() ![]() Author: Soltis Andrew Publisher: Prisma 'Solo il due per cento di coloro che si cimentano negli scacchi arrivano a laurearsi maestri e il perché non è un mistero', commenta Soltis in questo suo libro, ma le sue conclusioni sul perché potrebbero sorprendervi. Che la nostra capacità tattica e la conoscenza dei principi basilari del finale, accompagnate da un'adeguata sensibilità per i principi generali, possa essere stata sufficiente a farci raggiungere l'attuale livello di gioco, non significa che per progredire oltre basti migliorare le nostre conoscenze in questi settori, o in campi come la teoria delle aperture, la memorizzazione e il calcolo delle varianti. Soltis ci mette subito in guardia: il ben noto principio della 'riduzione del profitto' limita nel tempo il ritorno che ci aspettiamo di avere dai nostri sforzi... Egli non sottovaluta nemmeno il fatto che la stragrande maggioranza dei giocatori ad un certo punto della loro crescita scacchistica si imbattono in un muro che sembra invalicabile. In che modo allora possiamo aspirare a diventare maestri di scacchi, cosa bisogna fare? Soltis identifica nove attributi che considera indispensabili per ottenere il titolo di maestro, e in questo suo libro traccia un percorso di studio che non ha riscontri in altri libri o in fonti come Internet. € 24,00

![]() ![]() Author: Soltis Andrew Publisher: Sterling Pub Co Inc As a professional journalist and popular chess author, International Master Andrew Soltis is perhaps the best qualified to collect and edit this treasury of chess wisdom through the ages. With quotations running the gamut from timeless irony (“The winner of the game is the player who makes the next-to-last mistake.”—Anonymous) to pithy advice (“To get squares, ya gotta give squares.”—Bobby Fischer), each nugget of wisdom is accompanied by a chess position illustrating the idea behind it. Divided into chapters on Calculation, Intuition, Strategy, Position Evaluation, Openings, Sacrifices, Attitude, Endgames, Mistakes, Studying, Time Management, and Tournament Tactics, this is a book that chess fans will appreciate as much for its memorable wit as for its practical lessons. € 21,30

![]() ![]() Author: Soltis Andrew Publisher: McFarland Publishing How does one determine the “best” chess games? What one may see as brilliant, another may see as simply necessary. Like some art lovers, chess fans claim that they know a good game when they see it, and that they know better from good. But “best”? How is this articulated? This book, itself a work of art, is brought together by the use of five criteria: the overall aesthetics (clever and relentless are insufficient qualities); the originality (e.g., not yet another white knight sacrifice in a Sicilian); the level of opposition (the loser played very well); the soundness (i.e., are the moves refutable with perfect play?), accuracy (few of the moves are second-best), and difficulty (the winner overcame major obstacles) of the game; and finally the overall breadth and depth (one wants a series of sparkling ideas, with no dry patches). The 100 best games were taken from an initial field of about 7,000 played from 1900 through 1999 that had already gained some attention in magazines, books and periodicals. Three hundred games were then selected that appeared to have features consistent with the criteria. The 300 games were evaluated with scores—points given for each category of criteria. The games were then ranked, one to 100, by the score they received. No attempt was made to balance the selection according to period, nationality of players or opening. Also included is a chapter on the most overrated games of the twentieth century and one on games that would have made the list if… Includes 335 diagrams, an index of players and an index of openings by ECO codes. € 37,20
