Build up your chess 3 - Mastery - Hardcover

Renowned grandmaster Artur Yusupov completes his course of chess improvement.

Volume 1, The Fundamentals, showed club chess players the basic ideas they should know; Volume 2, Beyond the Basics, set off on the road to mastery,
and now in Volume 3 we arrive at our final destination.
Yusupov guides the reader using carefully selected positions and advice. This new understanding is then tested by a series of puzzles.

Artur Yusupov , from Germany, was ranked No. 3 in the world from 1986 to 1992, just behind the legendary Karpov and Kasparov. In recent years he has mainly worked as a chess trainer with players ranging from current World Champion Vishy Anand and many other top grandmasters, to talented juniors and local amateurs in Germany.
