Resenhas

This is an excellent, in depth book for the beginning chess player. I followed through carefully with a chess board, and I know that I can still gain much more by re-reading, which I plan to do sometime in the future.

The basis of Silman's chess philosophy is identifying imbalances (both temporary and permanent) and then making plans to take advantage of the imbalances while denying the opponent the use of their imbalances.

The book goes through chapter by chapter over different imbalances, and then discusses some weakness in amateur chess play (such as mindless King hunters and playing on the right side of the board that one's play has led to).

Finally, the book ends with 26 chess problems, with in depth analysis of each problem.

Highly recommended for the amateur player to develop and improve their game.

I wish this book had existed back when I was first learning the game with a friend in high school. I'm afraid I got to it too late to be of much use but it is still an excellent overview for the beginning player (and a quick little refresher for anyone coming back to the game after a period of absence).
