Points are awarded for selecting the best moves – and are deducted for selecting blunders! At the end of each lesson there is a points scale to indicate how well you have 'played'. This means you are able to accurately measure your progress as you work through the book. Readers are tested in all aspects of chess: attack, defence, counterattack, tactics, structures, strategy, endgames and so on. Following this interactive course of lessons is an ideal way to improve your game.

• A structured course of chess training
• Includes 40 deeply annotated exercise games
• Ideal for both chess students and trainers
