What is Improve Your Positional Chess about?
A practical guide to making positional decisions Hansen provides advice and ideas to show you what to look out for to evaluate positions relatively quickly and to help guide you to making correct decisions, both short-term and long-term. - Mark Donlan, Chess Horizons Throughout a game of chess, we must constantly make assessments and decisions that cannot be determined simply by calculation. We must then rely on our positional judgement. Good positional skills are primarily developed by experience, but they can also be learnt. In this book, Carsten Hansen provides a wealth of advice and ideas that offer readers a helping-hand to new levels of positional understanding. Paramount in this discussion is the players need to weigh up positional elements at the board, and decide which are most important for the situation at hand. Topics The book is rounded off with exercises to test your understanding of the concepts discussed, together with full solutions. Carsten Hansen is a FIDE Master from Denmark who currently lives in the USA.
