The Middle Game in Chess by Euwe Book 2 Dynamic and Subjective Features - 2nd hand

In Book I of this classic study, Max Euwe and Hans Kramer examined the static, or positional, features of the middle game. In this companion volume, they turn to its dynamic and subjective features. While the potentialities of a given position, its dangers as well as its opportunities, can be assessed, the manner in which they are handled varies widely according to the intellect and temperament of the player. Indeed, there is no single road to success.

Book II examines the initiative, the different types of attack on the king, the arts of defence, manœuvre and liquidation, and the common failings over the chessboard to which even great players are occasionally subject. The final chapter is devoted to a survey of the personal styles of thirty-eight grandmasters and world champions—from Anderssen to Petrosian, from Morphy to Tal and Fischer.
