### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    the print is excellent quality, that's it
  

*by M***I on Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2021*

on chess.com my rating is a bit more than 1700 and yet i can't learn anything from these books of Mr. Dvoretsky , the other reviewers got me interested and i purchased about 5 books for this author, non of them is what i had in mind as a training book.as a matter of fact i highly believe the whole book industry will vanish and will be replaced by youtube.a good chess book would probably consume few months to be read and one should have a chess set along side with the book to either see the steps of the game or solve an exercise ...in either way it will a time consuming process, video courses are much superior and easy to learn.i should return back those books.

    Take Your Tactics To the Next Level!
  

*by R***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2013*

Russian IM Dvoretsky is considered by many to be the world's best chess trainer of advanced players.  This volume is about as 'easy' a text as he has written, as some of his tomes can probably only be profitably used by titled players.  But this is not a tactics primer, and you will probably want to master a couple thousand or more basic tactical problems before you tackle this work.  Short of having a first rate coach, a book like this is about the best you can do to improve your tactics, as you are not just solving problems,  you are absorbing the wisdom obtained from Dvoretsky's decades of exposure to Russian chess culture.  You are also, of course, getting the benefit of learning from such a gifted and experienced trainer.  Topics include choosing candidate moves, using logic vs. using intuition, the method of elimination (a very important technique to learn), traps, paying attention to your opponents' possibilities, defense, and positional exchange sacrifices.  So as you can see, there is much to be learned here that you will not get from solving tactical puzzles.  Once you are adept at solving a comprehensive range of basic tactics, you owe it to yourself to tackle this challenging but highly worthwhile work.  Even better yet, have your chess coach guide you through it!  Good hunting!

    Another excellent book by Mark Dvoretsky!
  

*by G***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2019*

Dvoretsky provides outstanding coverage of the process of finding, calculating and playing tactics and combinations in positions. In addition to explanations of this difficult process, he provides many exercises and their solutions to train your vision, calculation and play of tactics and combinations.
