In
this comprehensive workbook, International Master
Jeremy Silman tests
a player’s strengths and weaknesses with
131 problems that cover openings, tactical and
positional middlegames, and endgames. Unique
among books that present problems and their solutions,
but offer little of actual instruction, The Reassess
Your Chess Workbook takes the player through
the
processes of problem solving and analysis and
provides advice and instruction that ultimately
helps him
discover the major flaws imbedded in his play.
Through this method, the player is led to an
understanding of a thought system that will add
hundreds of rating
points to his chess strength. This workbook may
be used in the problem/solution manner described
above or its section of solutions may be read
as an instruction manual itself. However one
chooses
to read this book, it will surely prove a font
of wisdom and insight for all students of the game.
