The art of planning in chess move by move - 2nd hand

A follow-up to Neil McDonald`s incredibly successful Chess: The Art of Logical Thinking, this insightful book takes a close look at some of the most outstanding games from the last 6 years, commenting on every single move as the game unfolds. This time, however, the emphasis is on planning, and how the players plan their strategy many moves ahead.

The author`s detailed approach gives you a rare opportunity to really get to the nitty-gritty of what goes through grandmasters` minds as they play. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the opening moves of each game are discussed more lightly – real discussion begins around the 10th move, which is where the planning stage really kicks in.
