The Lasker Method to Improve in Chess: A Manual for Modern-Day Club Players

Good Book

I liked the completeness of the book in respect to Lasker the player.

Here are five major themes that make up the outline of the book with illustrative quotes:The Lasker Method focuses on the importance of understanding the underlying principles of chess, rather than simply memorizing openings and tactics."The Lasker Method aims to create a chess player who can understand the game, rather than one who simply memorizes openings and tactics."The book emphasizes the value of studying endgame positions and understanding the principles of pawn structure."Endgame study is a must for all chess players. It is here that the real chess master is exposed. It is here that one can see the true value of pawn structure."Welling suggests that players should focus on developing their strategic vision and understanding of the board, rather than relying on calculation alone."The best chess players have a strategic vision. They are able to look at the board and see what is happening, rather than relying on calculation alone."The book also stresses the importance of flexibility and adaptability in chess, and encourages players to be open to new ideas and approaches."The best chess players are flexible. They are able to adapt to new situations and are open to new ideas."The Lasker Method also emphasizes the importance of analyzing one's own games, in order to learn from mistakes and improve one's play."The best chess players are always analyzing their own games. They are always looking for ways to improve and are willing to admit their mistakes."

um otimo livro pra quem quer e precisa, estudar de maneira seria, o livro, traz partidas e posicoes analisadas, de forma pratica e de facil entendimento. recomendo.

The book is advertised as a "complete manual" but actually it is only a set of annotated games...
