The best place to start your tactics training is in the endgame! Chess is 99% tactics and if you want to win more games, nothing works better than training tactics. Win a piece or find a mate. That will get you results.Since most of the pieces have left the board, endgame tactics have the clarity that enables you to grasp all basics concepts quickly and comprehensively. In the endgame, you can focus on what is important without any distractions by a couple of random pawns and pieces. In 1001 Chess Endgame Exercises for Beginners, IM Thomas Willemze does two things at once. He explains all the basic concepts, and provides you with a huge amount of exercises for each theme and each chess piece. Willemze uses all his experience as a coach, and his familiarity with the famous Step Method, to carefully build up your chess knowledge step-by-step. He shows you the strength of all pieces, from the lonely pawn to the almighty queen. And he guides you from the basics to more complex tactics in a highly instructive puzzle rush.

Rashid Nezhmetdinov (1912-1974) played fearless attacking chess. With his dazzling style, the Soviet master already was a legend during his lifetime, but international fame largely eluded him. Only once did he get permission to show his exceptional talent in a tournament abroad.Five times Nezhmetdinov was chess champion of the Russian Federation. In the 1961 Soviet Championship, he won the ?Best Game' prize for a spectacular win against... Mikhail Tal who praised his opponent for his ?amazing creativity.' Other stars that ?Nezh' defeated in grand style included Spassky, Polugaevsky, Bronstein, and Geller.His games, full of tactical pyrotechnics, are his legacy and have reached an ever-growing audience. Nezhmetdinov's shocking strategic queen sacrifice, in 1962 against Chernikov, as shown on Agadmator's YouTube channel, has become the best-watched chess video of all time with millions of views.In this book, Cyrus Lakdawala pays tribute to the genius of the enigmatic Nezhmetdinov, a Tatar who grew up as an orphan in the part of the Soviet Union that is now Kazakhstan. In more than one hundred impressive and instructive games and positions, Lakdawala shows how Nezhmetdinov fought for the initiative, how he bluffed and sacrificed, and how he kept his cool to out-calculate his opponents. Lakdawala's lucid writing perfectly matches the power of ?Nezh's' moves. This wonderful collection celebrates Nezhmetdinov as the Greatest Attacker in Chess.

After the success of his award-winning book ';Keep it Simple 1.e4' International Master Christof Sielecki is back. His new repertoire based on 1.d4 has a similar profile: variations that are straightforward and easy to remember, and require little or no maintenance. Sielecki has created a reliable set of opening lines for chess players of almost all levels. The major objective is to dominate Black from the opening, by simple means. You don't need to sacrifice anything or memorize long tactical lines. His main concept is for White to play 1.d4, 2.Nf3, 3.g3, 4.Bg2, 5.0-0 and in most cases 6.c4. Sielecki developed this repertoire while working with students who were looking for something that was easy to understand and easy to learn. This new 1.d4 repertoire may be even easier to master than his 1.e4 recommendations, because it is such a coherent system. Sielecki always clearly explains the plans and counterplans and keeps you focussed on what the position requires. Ambitious players rated 1500 or higher will get great value out of studying this extremely accessible book.

The chess playing mind does not work like a machine. Selecting a move results from rather chaotic thought processes and is not the logical outcome of applying a rational method. The only problem with that, says International Master Willy Hendriks, is that most books and courses on improving at chess claim exactly the opposite. The dogma of the chess instruction establishment is that if you only take a good look at certain 'characteristics' of a position, then good moves will follow more or less automatically. But this is not how it happens. Chess players, weak and strong, don't first judge the position, then formulate a plan and afterwards look at moves. It all happens at the same time, and pretending that it is otherwise is counterproductive. There is no use in forcing your students to mentally jump through theoretical hoops, according to experienced chess coach Hendriks. This work shows a healthy distrust of accepted methods to get better at chess. It teaches that winning games does not depend on ticking off a to-do list when looking at a position on the board. It presents club and internet chess players with loads of much-needed no-nonsense training material. In this provocative, entertaining and highly instructive book, Hendriks shows how you can travel light on the road to chess improvement!

Massin Kevin Labidi, (birth name: Mohamed Karim Labidi), was born in Tunis on August 4, 1966. Raised in a traditional family environment, he experienced the impact of political Islam, which marked the beginning of a significant transformation. Completing his primary education in Tunisia, he later pursued his secondary studies in France. It was during this period that he embraced Shiism before embarking on journeys to Iran and Syria for theological and historical studies. Subsequently, Labidi became involved in the Iranian Shiite political movement. Eventually freeing himself from this influence, he continued his mystical explorations by traveling to various countries in search of knowledge. Under the guidance of Sufi masters, he furthered his studies and developed his own philosophical belief: "Everyone is the master of oneself; no one is the master of others."

Ivan Sokolov, a famous grandmaster who has beaten world champions like Kasparov, Kramnik and Anand, has written a lucid guide on how to win chess middlegames, by addressing an almost universally ignored but extremely important topic: pawn structures.

The best chess training closely resembles the activity you're training for. This book provides you with an essential component - decision-making in the crucial positions of a real game of chess, played by club players rather than grandmasters. You have to answer the same questions that you face when you stare at the chess board and have to find a move.Amateur games can be very instructive. Studying the games of top players will undoubtedly help you to improve. However, it is often more enlightening to make decisions or see mistakes at a lower level, as they are easier for most of us to relate to.Thomas Willemze has carefully selected thirty games that illustrate an important theme, for example:Dealing with irreversible movesRerouting your rooksAligning your bishop and pawnsConverting a long-term advantageTaming the LondonWillemze is a master at choosing just the right positions to help you improve your chess knowledge and understanding.

The Rapture of the Church is a remarkable prophecy from the Word of God. Due to the numerous theories and ideas about this event, many no longer know what is and isn't biblical. Timo Groot takes you through the Biblical data on the Rapture and why the Rapture is more relevant today than ever before. The Rapture is the hope of escaping the horrors that will occur on Earth and is the moment when the Church will see the Lord Jesus face to face in the Father's house of God. The Second Coming of Christ is often confused with the Rapture. However, these are two different events. This book explains what the Second Coming is and what will happen after His coming. The Lord Jesus will physically return and establish a thousand-year reign on Earth. After reading this book, you will have knowledge about future times and look forward to the soon coming of Jesus. In this book, we cover topics including: Divine timelineWhat is the Rapture?Raptured before tribulationCaught up to heavenWhen is the Rapture?Living in anticipation of the RaptureWhat is the Second Coming?The judgments of GodSigns of His comingEvents after His comingDifference between the Rapture and the Second ComingHow to be ready for the Rapture

The greatest chess player of all time, Magnus Carlsen, and his friend, Grandmaster David Howell, explain how to win a chess game through perseverance. They show how you, in an equal starting position, can keep posing problems to your opponent and grind your opponent down until he cracks. New In Chess has converted this book from a popular Chessable video and MoveTrainer (R) course with the help of Carlsen and Howell. The lively conversations of the two friends translate very well into a highly instructive chess manual.
