Moves 3 to 10

<p><strong><span>Who will benefit from this book?</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span> </span></strong><span>If you feel you need to improve your openings – this book is for you. Some of the</span></p> <p><span>positions may be very simple, others not so much – but these are all positions that</span></p> <p><span>have happened and represent a wide range of possibilities. My suggestion is to</span></p> <p><span>try and think which moves are best to play but also why others may be mistakes.</span></p> <p><span>This introduction opened with a quote from Confucius. </span></p> <p><span> </span><span>The second part of the quote is: </span></p> <p><span> </span><strong><em><span>“...thinking without learning is dangerous”</span></em></strong><strong><span>. </span></strong></p> <p><span> </span><span>This book is not intended to<strong> </strong>replace learning theory. </span></p> <p><span>Every player certainly must learn theory. But the book is<strong> </strong>helpful for understanding theory and for being able to tackle unexpected conditions<strong> </strong>– a situation that happens very often in games of chess.</span></p>
