Experts agree that regularly solving tactics is a vital component of chess training. However, it's also widely acknowledged that there is one drawback of traditional chess puzzles--when solving them students know for sure that there is a genuine tactic in the position, whereas during a real game there is no such guarantee.

In this workbook, Volker Schlep�tz and Grandmaster John Emms offer a unique framework to study chess tactics independent of themes, difficulty and--most importantly--even the existence of an actual tactic in a given position.Analyzing carefully selected games, from beginner level through to club and tournament level, the reader assumes the role of a tactics detective, checking for mistakes and missed opportunities by both sides without the help of a chess engine. This training method resembles live play far more realistically than solving puzzles, because each move has to be analyzed with respect to tactical possibilities--whether they exist or not. The same thinking processes used in the training can then be applied in real games.

  • A unique framework to practice chess tactics
  • Exercises resemble over-the-board situations
  • Ideal for beginners, intermediate and club players
