The biggest problem I have with playing it however is that I am not very good. Over the years I have tried to improve by using online sources, and while some has stuck I wouldn't say it has been a productive experience. I decided it would be good to pick up a book which looks a previous games and this book is widely recommended to beginners. This was written in 1957 so a lot of the accepted knowledge at the Grandmaster level has changed with the invention of computer based chess engines. For this reason the book gets some criticism for being out of date but I think at the beginner and intermediate level this criticism is unwarranted. I really enjoyed going through the games in this book and playing them out. Chernev explains why each move is played and what other options could have been considered and why they were dismissed. ( ) The first chess book I ever read cover to cover, over and over. I couldn't put it down for days. I grant you I was suffering from insomnia at the time. This book is far from the most contemporary in theory and some of Chernev's claims are patently false or absurd. At the same time, however, it's simply one of the most enjoyable books you'll ever read. Nunn may be far more accurate, but Chernev is infinitely less snooty (in this case a good thing, readability-wise) and his passion for the game is far better communicated. So yes, my high regard for this work is sentimental, and yes there are far more informative and accurate books out there, but none of them are nearly as great a joy to read. And pleasure does inspire thought. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
