von Petrosjan bis Carlsen Da die Schachweltmeister natürlich in allen Bereichen des Spiels herausragen, kann man von ihrem Können am meisten lernen, und es versteht sich von selbst, dass das Endspiel diesbezüglich keine Ausnahme bildet. Ganz gleich, ob sie renommierte Taktiker oder hervorragende Positionsspieler waren - ganz gleich, ob sie ihre Eröffnungen in aller Tiefe analysierten oder diese eher intuitiv spielten: Es ist vollkommen ausgeschlossen, dass einer von ihnen den höchsten Titel hätte erlangen können, wenn er nicht auch die Endspielphase weltmeisterlich beherrscht hätte. |

Goethe once wrote, “Everything is both simpler than we can imagine, and more complicated than we can conceive.” He could well have had chess endgames in mind. Endgames have fewer pieces on the board than middlegames but this does not necessarily make them “easier” to play or understand. |

The Eternal Battle Bishop or knight? An eternal dilemma! The legendary Bobby Fischer would likely vote for the bishop. Other authorities like Nimzowitsch would prefer the knight. The truth is somewhere in the middle. Of course, it is clear a bishop usually dominates in open positions while the knight should be preferred in blocked positions. |

This endgame tactics textbook by Grandmaster Alexander Galkin, who was named Children's Trainer of the Year in 2016 by the Russian Chess Federation, provides a large volume of practical knowledge. The vast majority of chess combination textbooks contain a selection of positions and exercises where the student is asked to find a tactic or carry out an attack against the enemy king. That way, they learn to develop their combinational vision and ability to attack. However, there is not much focus on the mistake by one of the players that led to the critical position where the combination or decisive attack became possible. |

A World Champion?s Favorite Studies
Sergei Tkachenko has collected 100 studies whose common theme is that white ends up with just a bishop and knight in the finale, yet manages to win or draw. There are no more than six moves in almost all solutions, so experienced chess players can analyze the positions directly from the diagrams. Newbies to chess problems will also find analyzing these studies useful. The diverse set of tactical ideas involving a bishop and knight in the finale will enable them to gain a deeper understanding of how the bishop and knight pair combine. Some of these studies are classics from bygone ages. Others were originally published in the Soviet Union or ex-Soviet countries. This is the seventh book in the World Champion?s Favorite Studies series by Sergei Tkachenko to be published by Elk and Ruby Publishing House. |

Practical Exercises for Every Chess Player
Jesus de la Villa?s worldwide bestseller 100 Endgames You Must Know successfully debunked the myth that endgame theory is complex and that endgame books are tedious. Reviewers praised its clarity and completeness and thousands of players dramatically improved their endgame understanding (and their results!). In recent years, De la Villa?s students sometimes complained that when they had to apply what they had studied in 100 Endgames, they didn?t always have the material ready at their fingertips. De la Villa then made an important discovery: most of the errors his students made are being made by others as well, even by strong and sometimes famous chess players! |

The Second Volume of the Understanding Endgames Series examines the Minor Pieces.
Understanding = Mastery! Knowing the abilities and limitations of the minor pieces is very valuable for mastering the secrets of the royal game, and this can be studied best in the endgame. It is essential to understand the management of the long-range bishop, albeit confined to one color, as well as the short-range, ubiquitous knight. This book is the second volume in the authors´ acclaimed Understanding Endgames series. It follows a dual philosophy, like their previous work, Understanding Rook Endgames. It deals with seven-piece minor-piece endings in some detail. These endgames are often so deep that pre-tablebase analysis almost always contained errors. |
