S.T.A.R. Chess

Acclaimed author and grandmaster Paul Motwani discusses four elements of successful chess (strategy, tactics, attack, reaction) with the same wit and clarity that has characterised his previous writings on the game. Here he applies his original, mnemonic-based approach to the strategy and tactics of attack, defence and counterattack. This book is packed with instructive model examples starting from a wide spectrum of opening systems, presenting a treasure-trove of ideas to surprise even the most experienced of opponents. Interspersed with the instruction are test positions and puzzles to improve your skills in reasoning.
