Understanding Chess Tactics Martin Weteschnik £14.99 ‘Chess is 99% tactics’ is an old saying. This may be an exaggeration, but even the remaining 1% still depends on tactics. Weteschnik draws on his years of experience as a chess teacher to produce a book which does more than simply listing puzzle after puzzle, instead explaining the concepts behind them to get the most from their study. This book is the first in a brand new series following on from My Great Predecessors. Chess legend Garry Kasparov reflects on a pivotal time in chess history. Bobby Fischer's rise towards the chess summit (1970-1972) marked the approach of a new era, affecting all aspects of the game and opening theory in particular. Fischer demonstrated the need for deep preparation with both colours, expanded the range of openings studied and laid the basis for present-day professional chess. He became the first real chess professional in the West. The leader of the new generation, Anatoly Karpov, fully reaped the fruits of the Fischer revolution and mastered the lessons of his great predecessor. Of the players of the older generation, only Victor Korchnoi was able to achieve such a high level of professionalism. Alas, Fischer left the chess stage. Between 1972 and 1975 alone, progress in the field of opening theory was more significant than in the entire preceding decade! Under the influence of Fischer who imparted a great impetus to the development of the game, chess was radically regenerated. This process accelerated in later years. As a result the overall picture in the openings changed almost beyond recognition. By studying this fascinating book the reader will certainly learn a great deal, discover things that are unexpected, and see how rapidly and inexorably chess development approached the computer era.
