HOW I BECAME WORLD CHAMPION VOL. 1: 1973-1985
(PC-DVD) - Garry Kasparov (ref. CBDGK1)
Garry Kasparov is, arguably, the best player in the history of chess. He became
the youngest ever World Champion in 1985. From 1985 to 2000 Kasparov defended
the title against Anatoly Karpov, Nigel Short and Viswanathan Anand, until he
finally lost it to Vladimir Kramnik. But even as an ex-champion Kasparov dominated
the international chess scene and was first on the FIDE ranking list until he retired
from competitive chess in 2005.
On this PC-DVD Kasparov deals with the first phase of his career. He recounts
how he made it to the top in the years 1973 to 1985 and shows the key games
which helped him become the world's best player. His model for selecting the
games is Bobby Fischer’s book "My 60 Memorable Games". Like Fischer, Kasparov includes some losses.
This DVD containing 16 chapters and running for more than five hours gives you an opportunity to follow
the development of the best player in the history of chess, all told and explained by the champion himself.

1000 CHECKMATES (PC-DVD) - Ljubomir Ftacnik (ref. CBD1000)
In this extended update of the ChessBase mating course, Lubomir Ftacnik initiates
you into the fine art of mating your opponent. In four videos the Grandmaster
explains typical mating patterns. At the same time, two small collections of material
allow systematic assimilation of the subject of delivering mate. After that, it is all
about answering the training questions in 1000 mating exercises. The positions
are classified in different ways. The simplest of these differentiates between mate
in 1, 2 or 3 moves. There is a methodical way of accessing the 1000 mating
exercises via 15 main themes. These include back rank mate, smothered mate,
the king in the centre or motifs involving the h-file. The systematic solving of
exercises on specific themes will certainly help you in your own games.
Lubomir Ftacnik is a Slovak Grandmaster with experience of three decades in international chess.

CHESS ENDGAMES 11: ROOK AGAINST BISHOP (PC-DVD)
Karsten Müller (ref. CBDCE11)
On DVDs 9 and 10 of his endgame series Dr. Karsten Müller explored symmetrical
material constellations with two pieces against two pieces, and this DVD begins
with a discussion of asymmetrical material balances, including * rook against
bishop * rook and knight against two bishops * two rooks against rook and bishop
* queen and rook against queen and bishop * rook and knight against bishop and
knight * rook against two bishops
These endgames allow one to study the important characteristics "coordination"
and "harmony of the pieces" in detail and lead to interesting practical insights.
With the help of a large number of examples the internationally renowned endgame
expert explains the pertinent winning motifs of the side with the rook, such as
returning the exchange, opening lines for the rook and restricting the bishop.
Grandmaster Dr. Karsten Mueller is an internationally recognised expert on the endgame, he writes the
Endgame Column for ChessBase Magazine.

STRATEGY UNIVERSITY VOL. 5 (PC-DVD) - A. Mikhailchishin
(ref. CBDSU5)
Using ideas and games of great masters from the past, the Ukrainian trainer deals
with various themes.
1. The typical exchange sacrifice: on one hand the Sicilian exchange sacrifice R x
c3, and on the other allowing the “exchange” of a rook on f8 against the white
bishop on h6 in order to go on and achieve a superiority on the black squares.
2. Attacks by Tal are presented under "Bluffs", but the theme has a much more allembracing
heading, namely "drastically altering the course of a game".
3. Anybody can carry out double attacks, but how do you bring about the positions
in which they are possible?
4. How to take on board the ideas of other players and make use of them yourself.
5. Through his own games, the author shows how to recognise typical mistakes and study them.
6. To finish off, the DVD introduces some legendary Soviet players: Yuri Razuvaev, VitalyTseshkovsky,
Oleg Dementiev and Viktor Zheliandinov.
Adrian Mikhalchishin, a Grandmaster since 1978, is currently among the top 5 world trainers and the
Chairman of the FIDE Trainers’ Commission.

MAGIC TACTICS OF MIKHAIL TAL (n1400)
Karsten Muller & Raymund Stolze
Mikhail Tal was one of the greatest geniuses of chess history. His desire to
play beautiful chess and to plunge into incalculable complications, against
opponents of any standard, has ensured that his popularity lives on, even
after his early death in 1992.
With this book Karsten Muller and Raymund Stolze have created both an
instructive chess tactics guide and an intimate portrait of Tal, with
contributions by some of those who knew and played against him. The
authors have selected from Tal's games one hundred exercises which will
teach amateurs how they can include stunning sacrifices in their own games.
The four main sections of the book "Warm up", "Correct Sacrifices",
"Speculative Sacrifices" and "The Correct Way to Defend Against the
Magician" feature some of Tal's most interesting, notorious and best games,
with test questions at crucial stages of the games. Interviews with many of Tal's contemporaries allow
them to give their give their impressions of Tal as a person and tell the story of their games against him
from their own perspective.

he got to where he is today.
This is the resulting book, in which he details his personal odyssey with a
disarming candour and honesty, recounting many of his highs and lows,
fears and phobias, triumphs and tragedies, as well as recalling some of his

HOW I BEAT FISCHER'S RECORD (q8219) - Judit Polgar
Judit Polgar earned the rank of Grandmaster at 15 years, one month younger
than Bobby Fischer when he did it 34 years earlier.
In this very personal book Judit Polgar describes her early moments of
success and the chess ideas she needed to master to achieve them.
Judit has structured the book to be a manual for improving players rather
than just a collection of her games. With this in mind the chapters are structured
to teach different aspects of chess strategy and tactics using Judit's games
as examples. Many of the games included here have not been published
before, including training games against coaches.
This volume covers the period from her early years upto 1991 when, at the
age of 15 years, 4 months and 28 days she became the youngest ever chess
Grandmaster.

THE POWERFUL CATALAN - Victor Bologan (n1401)
The Catalan (1.d4,Nf6; 2.c4,e6; 3.Nf3,d5; 4.g3) is a solid chess opening

opening and can be reached by different move orders.
Top Grandmaster Victor Bologan presents a complete repertoire for White,
covering all of Black's major 4th move options, including the Queen's Indian,
Tarrasch, Triangle, Closed and Classical setups.
With many original analyses, based on the most recent tournament praxis
Bologan takes the reader by the hand with the accessible verbal
explanations he is known for. He explains typical Catalan strategic plans
as well as tactical themes and offers his own conclusions at the end of
each chapter.
Includes indexes of variations and players names.

MODERN DEFENCE: MOVE BY MOVE - Cyrus Lakdawala
(p4986)
Move by Move is a series of books which uses a question and answer
format to emulate lessons involving chess teachers and students. Carefully
selected questions and answers are designed to keep you actively involved
and allow you to monitor your progress as you learn.
The Modern Defence (1..g6; against 1.e4, 1.d4, or 1.c4) is an ambitious,
counter-attacking choice for Black which can be played against all mainline
openings. In hypermodern style, Black allows White to occupy the centre
and then proceeds to undermine this centre with pawn and piece attacks.
In this book, Cyrus Lakdawala examines the key variations of the Modern
Defence after 1.e4, 1.d4 or 1.c4 for White, using 55 key games with extensive
explanations in a question and answer format.
He shows how to play Black against White's major attacking options after
1.e4, including the Austrian Attack, Pseudo Dragon, Fianchetto Lines and Classical Systems. Against
1.d4 he recommends the Averbakh Variation with an early ..e5; for Black. He advocates the reversed
Closed Sicilian against 1.c4.
Cyrus Lakdawala is an International Master who has been teaching chess for over 30 years, and coaches
some of the top junior players in the USA.

MODERN CHESS PREPARATION - Vladimir Tukmakov
(n1377)
The most important aim of modern preparation, both for professionals and
for ambitious amateurs, is to get a playable position that you understand
better than your opponent.
The role of the computer in preparation has grown tremendously and
legendary chess coach Vladimir Tukmakov explains how top Grandmasters
use their "Metal Friend". He warns that professionals should not put too
much trust in chess engines and should analyse more deeply themselves.
Club players, on the other hand, should reduce their time in front of the
machine to a minimum. Tukmakov explains what amateurs should do in
order to arrive at the board well-armed: study the classics, analyse your
own games without a computer, and know yourself.
A special chapter is devoted to must-win situations: when the outcome of a
tournament, a match or even a whole life depends on a single game. With
lots of brilliant examples, inside information and amusing anecdotes, Modern
Chess Preparation is not only highly instructive, but also a joy to read.
A former Ukrainian champion, Grandmaster Vladimir Tukmakov won many tournaments and came second
in three Soviet championships. After his active career he became an esteemed chess coach.

ATTACK WITH BLACK - Valery Aveskulov (g5439)
Sick of defending with Black? Never found a reliable way to fight for the initiative
when White plays 1 d4?
Allow Grandmaster Aveskulov to assist. He has put together a sound but ultraaggressive
repertoire based on gambits that have proved their worth in
grandmaster play over many years. The Benko Gambit is dreaded by many 1
d4 players. Black gets very active piece-play, and even if White reaches a
pawn-up endgame, he is often shocked to find he is worse due to Black's
intense positional pressure! If White avoids the Benko, that's when we hit him
with the Blumenfeld, sacrificing a pawn to set up a strong pawn-centre.
Aveskulov examines all of White's options and move-orders after 1 d4 Nf6, and
shows an aggressive reply to each of them. He is never willing to take existing
theory on faith, and throughout the book presents an extraordinary wealth of
new analysis and ideas. He also explains typical plans in depth, so you will always know how to turn the
screw once you have your opponent on the run.
At the age of 21, Grandmaster Valery Aveskulov won the championship of Ukraine, one of the world's
strongest chess nations. He has represented his country in junior and team events.

FIGHTING CHESS WITH HIKARU NAKAMURA
Karsten Muller & Raymund Stolze (L1023)
This is the very first book to focus exclusively on Hikaru Nakamura, the
greatest American chess player since the legendary Robert James Fischer.
The book features a prologue penned by Lubosh Kavalek, who was none
other than Bobby's insider and supporter at the "match of the century"
against Boris Spassky in 1972.
Hikaru Nakamura is firmly established in the United States as the legitimate
successor to the eleventh world champion, the great Robert James Fischer,
since his sensational triumph at the traditional Wijk aan Zee chess festival
on 30 January 2011 in Holland, where he finished ahead of reigning world
champion Viswanathan Anand.
In this book, Grandmaster Karsten Müller from Hamburg and chess
journalist Raymund Stolze from Berlin document the 24-year-old's
fascinating journey to the top of world chess.
In ten themed chapters the authors focus on the main reasons for the success of Nakamura, who, like
arch-rival Magnus Carlsen, was coached for nearly a year by Garry Kasparov. They include 47 annotated
games, including all Nakamura's games from Wijk aan Zee 2011, as well as tactics and endgame tests,
an interview with Nakamura and articles by Lubosh Kavalek, Bettina Trabert and Kris Littlejohn.
Kavalek has been following Hikaru's ascent to the summit of chess at close range, which is why he is
ideally placed to deliver a reliable verdict on this exceptional player.

EMINENT VICTORIAN CHESS PLAYERS - Tim Harding
(x6568)
This book portrays British chess life in the nineteenth century through
biographical studies of ten players who shaped the modern game. From
Captain Evans, inventor of the famous gambit, to Isidor Gunsberg,
England's first challenger for the world championship, personal narratives
are blended with game annotations to reassess players’ achievements
and character. The author has combined deep reading in primary sources
with genealogical research to reveal new facts and correct previous
misunderstandings. Major chapters on Howard Staunton and William
Steinitz, in particular, highlight the tensions between Englishmen and
immigrants, amateurs and professionals. The contrasting long careers of
Henry Bird and Joseph Blackburne provide a thread of continuity.
More than 160 games (with diagrams), several annotated in detail, and 50
photographs and line drawings are included. Appendices provide career
records for all ten; there are extensive notes, a bibliography and indexes.
Tim Harding played for Ireland at the 1984 FIDE chess olympiad in Thessaloniki, and is a Senior International
Master of correspondence chess.

ARON NIMZOWITSCH - Per Skjoldager and Jørn Erik Nielsen (x6539)
One of the greatest chess legends of all time, Aron Nimzowitsch (1886-1935), is best known for founding
the Hypermodernism school of chess, which emerged after World War I to challenge the chess ideologies
of traditional central European masters. This first full-scale biography of Nimzowitsch chronicles his early
life in Denmark, his family and education, and his fascination with the game that would become the focus
of his life. Also included are explorations of his tournament games and records, his dispute with influential
chess teacher Siegbert Tarrasch, and his role in the development of Hypermodern Chess. With detailed
accounts of nearly 450 games and the only narrative of Nimzowitsch from 1914 to 1924, a period formerly
cloaked in mystery, this volume offers a thorough profile of one of chess’s greatest innovators.
Per Skjoldager is an IT contractor, chess historian and chess book collector. He lives in Fredericia, Denmark.
Former editor of Danish School Chess Magazine, Jorn Erik Nielsen lives in Aabenraa, Denmark.

GRANDMASTER REPERTOIRE 11: BEATING 1.d4
SIDELINES - Boris Avrukh (q8212)
Most players are comfortable using their favourite defence against 1.d4
followed by c2-c4, but it is not always easy to find an antidote to the many
sidelines at White's disposal. From the infamous Blackmar-Diemer Gambit,
to the popular Veresov, taking in the Barry Attack, Torre Attack, London
system, Colle-Zukertort, g3 systems and the tricky Trompowsky, Black
must be ready to meet a whole array of "pet openings", each bringing its
own unique dangers and challenges.
Grandmaster Repertoire 11: Beating 1.d4 Sidelines provides a sound and
active repertoire against virtually every non-standard opening line at White's
disposal after both 1.d4 d5 and 1.d4 Nf6. Where applicable, Avrukh covers
each White system after both 2...e6 and 2...g6, making this book suitable
for fans of the Nimzo-Indian, King's Indian and Grünfeld defences as well
as classical 1.d4,d5 players.
Boris Avrukh is a grandmaster from Israel. He is an Olympiad gold medalist, former World Junior Champion

AMATEUR TO I.M. - Jonathan Hawkins (m7740)
International Master Jonathan Hawkins was a relatively slow starter in the
world of chess.
He started to study chess very seriously in his late teens and achieved a
rapid rise through the ranks. He became a FIDE Master in 2008 and earned
the title of International Master in 2010. 2011 brought Jonathan two
Grandmaster norms. One of them was earned at the British Championship, in
which he outscored numerous Grandmasters to share third place.
How did Jonathan Hawkins manage to go from being an average tournament
competitor to a player on the brink of clinching the Grandmaster title? It took
just three years for him to become a FIDE Master, an International Master
and to achieve his first two Grandmaster norms.
The secret was knowing what to study and how to learn as efficiently as
possible. Focusing his attention firmly on the endgame, Jonathan devised a
number of building blocks and identified a number of very important areas of study.
These pages reveal the secrets of his notebooks for the first time. IM Hawkins presents special material
aimed to help you become a much better practical player, one armed with a deeper understanding of key
aspects of chess.

MAYHEM IN THE MORRA! - Marc Esserman (q8220)
Mayhem in the Morra offers a complete fighting repertoire for White against
the Sicilian with 1.e4,c5; 2.d4,cxd4; 3.c3. The Morra Gambit is a popular
weapon at club level, but can it be effective at Grandmaster level? Marc
Esserman believes so and he has 2700-rated scalps to back up his view.
Esserman is the world's leading expert on the Morra Gambit and he shares
all his secrets and many novelties in a lively witty style. The Morra leads to
exciting gambit play, so some players decline the offer with 3...Nf6 -
Esserman also shows how White can attack this cautious defence.
Don't be afraid of the Sicilian - unleash Mayhem in the Morra!
Marc Esserman is an International Master from the USA who has played
and analysed the Morra Gambit for most of his life.

Vladimir Kramnik is a giant of the chess world. He won the World
Championship in 2000 by defeating the previously dominant Garry Kasparov

masterpieces.

defences such as the King's Indian, Grunfeld and Benoni setups. White's Zuka

and Stonewall, with analysis and explanation of White's Zuka system.
David Rudel is author of the popular books "Zuke-Em", "The Moment of Zuke"

MOVE FIRST - THINK LATER - Willy Hendriks (n1398)
Sense and Nonsense in Improving Your Chess
The chess instruction establishment claims that all you need to do is
concentrate on the characteristics of a position, stick to some rules of
thumb and good moves will pop up more or less automatically. But that is
not how it works, finds International Master Willy Hendriks. Chess players,
both weak and strong, don't first make a plan before looking at candidate
moves. Trial and error is a very common and in fact highly effective way to
get to the best move.
In his journey into the chess-playing mind, Hendriks uses recent scientific
insights in the working of our brain. He raises some intriguing questions:
* Why does a chess trainer's advice often sound like a horoscope?
* Can you find strong moves by ticking off a to-do list?
* Is it possible to reach master level without ever making a plan?
This iconoclastic book presents a wealth of valuable, no-nonsense training material. In a refreshing,
entertaining and highly instructive read, Willy Hendriks shows how you can travel light on the road to
chess improvement!
International Master Willy Hendriks has been working as a chess trainer for over 25 years. Inspired by
recent developments in the cognitive sciences, he challenges the conventional wisdom in chess instruction.

BRADFORD 1888 - A J Gillam (Editor) (c3488)
The British Chess Association tournament at Bradford in August 1888 was the
first major chess event held in England outside London.
It was won by Isidor Gunsberg ahead of Mackenzie, von Bardeleben, Mason,
Burn, Weiss, Blackburne, Taubenhaus, Bird, Pollock, Thorold, Locock, Mortimer,
Lee, Owen, Hall, Rumboll and Skipworth. The result was a great success for
Gunsberg and added weight to his claim to a world championship match against
Steinitz, which was played two years later.
This is the first attempt to collect all of the existing tournament games. This
book includes many contemporary newspaper reports, indices, 26 photos,
101 diagrams and all available games with contemporary notes where available.

PROFESSION: CHESSPLAYER - Vladimir Tukmakov (r902x)
From his childhood, Vladimir Tukmakov realized that there was something
special about his ability to play chess. He had it all - talent, skill and motivation.
After winning many junior and student tournaments, he went on to play in
fourteen Soviet championships at a time when these were considered some
of the most powerful competitions in the world.
You are now invited to join the author in a very personal autobiographical
journey, as he traces his development from one of many gifted chessplaying
children to a member of the world's chess elite.
From talented boy and strong grandmaster to twice leading the Ukrainian team
to gold medals in the 2004 and 2010 Olympiads, Tukmakov's story is a
fascinating glimpse into the "golden era" of the Soviet School of Chess, and
the trials and tribulations of individual will and genius.
Included are dozens of photographs and over 40 deeply annotated games
against some of the strongest chessplayers in the world.

DYNAMIC BENKO GAMBIT - Sergey Kasparov (n1406)
The Benko Gambit (1.d4,Nf6; 2.c4,c5; 3.d5,b5;) is a great opening for those
who like aggressive chess. Black sacrifices a pawn for active play on the
queenside and his initiative often continues into the endgame. That is why
the opening is very popular among club players, but also World Champions
such as Veselin Topalov, Vishy Anand and Garry Kasparov have played
the Benko.
Sergey Kasparov has practiced the Benko Gambit himself for many years.
He knows all the subtleties of Black's and White's plans in detail. In lively,
personal and highly instructive prose he presents a complete repertoire,
with many new concepts, for Black.
Kasparov helps the reader to get a firm grip on this opening. He does not
present endless computer variations but concentrates on ideas and
concepts. With 273 complete games in eighteen chapters he presents a
comprehensive guide to the Benko Gambit.
Grandmaster Sergey Kasparov (1968) was born in Baku, Azerbaijan, and now lives in Belarus.
