Descrição do livro
A Gambit Classic Reissue: Golden nuggets of endgame wisdom
“For the teacher with a need for instructive examples it is brilliant.” - GM Peter Heine Nielsen (Magnus Carlsen's coach), Skakbladet
“Instructive for players of all levels” - GM Michael Adams, Daily Telegraph
Popular chess author Steve Giddins presents 101 ideas that are vital to successful endgame play. By absorbing and understanding these concepts and methods, you will ensure that you will spot them when they are possible in your own games.
This is an ideal book to read without using a chess set, as the abundant diagrams guide you through the analysis and illustrate the key points. All types of endings are covered, including simple technical situations and more complex strategic battles. The tips include both pithy rules of thumb and general thinking methods. The examples are drawn from an immense variety of sources and based on Giddins’s experiences as a player, coach and pupil.
Steve Giddins is a FIDE Master from England who plays regularly in international events and has frequently contributed to the British Chess Magazine. This is his fourth book for Gambit. He has gained a reputation as a writer who provides useful, no-nonsense advice on topics of genuine practical importance.
“The book caught my eye and in my opinion is a cut above the ordinary, particularly due to the author’s extremely clear and efficient way of presenting ideas. The other advantage that we can all appreciate, whether beginner or master, is that you can easily read it without a chess board (or computer) because there are a minimum of variations on each page with plentiful diagrams. That makes it a pleasure to browse through.” - IM John Watson, The Week in Chess
“Many authors teach you how to ‘survive’ the endgame while Giddins teaches you to love the endgame” - Moshe Rachmuth, ChessBug
“This is good material to study the endgame and each lesson can be handled by less experienced players. There are plenty of diagrams so this book could be used for travel or when you don’t have access to a board. Recommended.” - Paul Dunn, Australian Chess
“If you just did one lesson per day, after a little more than three months you would have greatly increased your knowledge of how to play all sorts of endings.” - Michael Jeffreys, ChessVille
“[Giddins breaks] his presentation down into easy-to-learn segments, with nearly all of his 101 ‘tips’ confined to a single page of the book. One page - one tip. Most of the positions discussed come from top-level games.” - Steve Goldberg, ChessCafe
“As someone who has attempted to wade through ‘theoretical’ endgame books and found the going tough, I believe this book will help a player who finds learning the endgame from a structured textbook frustrating. ... the ability to ‘dip into’ the endgame whenever the mood takes one is a valuable asset, and one which makes this book worth having. Painless endgame study - how many endgame books can say that?!” - Munroe Morrison, Open File
